Small Craft Advisory Again!?
On Saturday I went sailing with my wife. We were delayed a few hours waiting for a storm to pass and were not able to leave the marina until 4:00 pm. While we waited, we did a couple tasks in the cabin, did a little touch up painting on the port rub rail and saw a few WWII era fighter planes fly over from a nearby air show. When we finally got out the winds were light but picked up to about 10 knots after about a half hour. We had an short but enjoyable sail.
On Sunday I went sailing with my brother and a friend. The forecast was identical to last Sunday’s with a small craft advisory and forecasted winds 20 – 25 knots and waves 5 – 6 feet with an occasional 10 footer. Again, the forecast wasn’t accurate for the Waukegan area and we actually had winds 15-20 knots with 2-3 foot waves with an occasional 5 footer. We had an excellent sail with the rail in the water a few times.
