Sailing Off Cape Cod

Erica and Doug gave us a combination Mother's /Father's day gift of a day sailing a 35 foot sloop off the coast of Cape Cod. The trip was for five people. Now start counting. (We raised no dummies and neither did Doug's folks.) Yes, the trip was a shared adventure with Carol, Clay, Evan, Doug, and Erica. Our hosts were Mike and Debbie Kaufman. We had a great day for sailing from Falmouth, Ma. to Martha's Vineyard. We anchored off the island near enough for Doug & Evan to swim to shore while the rest of us ate lunch. In the video Evan's face will tell you how cold the water was. We shared the harbor with a couple of other boats who had the same idea. Everyone had a turn at the wheel but we failed to capture Carol on film.
