Here’s a dump of some fun photos and videos from this summer living aboard Blue Moon!
Taken at sunrise from S/V Stellina!As with our Main cruise on the Hylas 54, Bar Harbor was as far north as we went. We were plagued with fog for the entirety of our time in Maine. We had a very productive stay in Portland, Maine taking care of a number of small projects before I took on the single-handed passage to Boston.
The Sabre 38 MKII is a phenomenal performer under sail. Here Blue Moon is storming along at over 7 knots close hauled in winds only a little over 10-12 knots.During the summer we anchored almost half the time! The new ground tackle setup worked perfectly.Leaving New York City for the single-handed passage to Annapolis. Living aboard and constantly being exposed to the elements you learn to cover your face as much as possible because if the sun doesn’t get you, the wind burn will. In heavy traffic areas like the Hudson River, I keep the VHF very close by to negotiate passes with big ships. Two Sabres anchored in Atlantic Highlands. I made new friends with the owners of that light blue beauty!Generally we are so active living aboard that we don’t need to exercise very often. But after a couple of days at anchor in Cape May it was time to get out the weights. What a boat!
This is a very pleasant slide show of the summer! 🙂
