Sailing During a Small Craft Advisory

We had an exciting day sailing.  We found out later there was a small craft advisory and winds were 18 mph. We noticed a lot of sailboats returning back to port.  Some had taken the jib down (small sail in front) .  Every sailboat was heeling hard (leaning over) and the saltwater was spraying over the bow and into our faces. We made it back alive, so it was a good sail.   And FUN too!!

Chloe was allowed in the cockpit for the entire trip.  This was her first time staying outside.  We’ve always put her in the cabin.  She seemed to enjoy being outside.  Harvey was also outside sunning himself.
