On 15th August Courage 1 was back on the water ready for its truly maiden voyage. It was maiden for the boat and for myself on it too. Well, I did sail it earlier but just a few miles to find out if all was well and what was yet needed and there were few issues with boom, mast, rigging or leaking shaft. This time, it was serious cruising we were up to.

Two days left before East Coast Cruise from GYC. Around 22 boats and 63 sailors to go. Good weather forecast for the next two weeks. Some shopping and off we go.
