We are now well into 2013 and I hope that the new year is off to a great start for you.
I left off quite a while ago here with pulling Sirocco for a bit of a freshen-up and routine maintenance. Quite a lot has happened since then! I will get busy filling things in soon, but first wanted to try sharing some videos from my trip so far. I will put links to the new videos here on the blog, starting with this one from the first day of my trip out of the Great Lakes in 2010 aboard Cavendysh.
This first video was taken not long after leaving Dunkirk with a forecast nor’easter bearing down on Lake Erie. I was in high spirits while taking this video, as we were making great speed and the lake was still pretty flat. We made good time–covering 129 miles that first day out in up to near gale-force winds. My stomach definitely protested the boisterous conditions when it got windy and rough overnight.
