We had a nice lively Melonseed sail on the 3rd as well. We wanted to go today, but it quickly began gusting to about 30, so we did something else. Hoping for one more before we store her for the winter.
Thanks! This is my 10th season with Grenville and it seems that even in a breeze, the boat tends to herself while I'm busy trying to capture those video clips.
@@gulfair-cavalry-tango1011 Absolutely, as the wind pipes up she really comes to life! The wind direction meant that the waves weren’t too big so she kept her speed up while punching through the chop.
There is always a certain melancholy at this time of the year! I wish for at least one "not too cold" day for sailing!
The autumn is such a great time to sail ... good wind, fewer boats on the river with perfect light and colours for filming!

@@saabtech3510 Hope we both get at least one more sail before the long cold dark!
Great to see your Melon Seed in a bit of wind, she does sail well.

Beautiful boat, great sailing and great video indeed!❤
@@robhosailor Couldn’t agree more … thanks very much! ⛵️😄
As the wind is her spirit, a ship has a soul! She flies!
