Today was a special sail on a 32-foot sloop (one masted) sailboat around the local harbor, bays and islands. We couldn’t have had better weather, sunny and medium wind. We had a captain/guide but John took his turn at the helm, too.
Alice is the oldest sloop made in Friendship, Maine, that is still sailing today. She was built in 1899. Her mast and bow are made from pine.
It was also a day of flowers and the first hints of fall colors in the trees.
