Every September, the Edmonton Sailors head down to the Gorge for 7 (ish) days of sailing and fellowship.

Saturday - Stevenson




Today we sailed at Stevenson from the Boat Launch, which is East of Bob's Beach.




With Easterly wind and Easterly Current, we thought this launch would give us a better chance of getting back to the beach. An Bob's Beach would be an alternate if we couldn't stay upwind.





6.6 meter sails were the call for most. I slogged on the 6.6 so got out my 8.7 and formula board. Had a pretty good sail, but the big rigs are sure a lot more work than the small ones.










Kent put his rig away and started to do work on the beach - talk about a committed worker......












Resting in the sun - after a low wind - but good day!
