Trinity's First Sailing Experience Since 2006

She Handled the Wind Well.  We Experienced A Couple of Gusts, She Tilted Between 15 and 30 Degrees.  We adjusted the Tiller and eventually . . .She Decided when She was Going to React - When She was Good and Ready. 
My Brother Michael's Craftsmanship was Nothing Less Than Amazing and I Hope He Was Smiling Down on Trinity Today!

Trinity is a Breathtaking Boat to Sail!

RT. 35 Draw Bridge at low tide.  Bridge, depending on the tide is between 22 & 28 feet high.  Trinity's Mast without the Gaffe Rig is Approximately 24 Feet.  A Quick call to the Bridge Captain and He happily raised the bridge.  If you were on Rt 35 this morning - sorry!

RT. 35 Draw Bridge at low tide

Very Easy Boat to Sail - Very Forgiving to This Novice!  Many adjustments, but well worth learning her language.

When Trinity is at Full Sail - Both Jib (Front) sail and Main Sail are taking full wind, she glides through the water - she moves when she pleases.  When she does move it is with a lot of purpose and direction.  She has a life in the water and she is going to live it.

A View of Trinity that does not get old - she is easily managed from the tiller.
