For any masters who haven't left for Halifax yet, know this: the water is COLD. Went out w/the fleet in drifting conditions & just about had a heart attack when launching the boat. Even in the drifting conditions, when the breeze picked up (...we're talking 3 or 4 mph here), the temperature dropped precipitously.
Unfortunately I left my drysuit and farmer john wetsuit home. It's going to be a long cold regatta!
Very nice blog yyou have here
