Overview

Cruise Summary

From Pollywog: An interesting cruise! An evening sail to Hamilton revealed many chubby revelers. Dead calm on return so did it under power, got back to the docks at the park about midnight, light sprinkling, as we docked all hell broke loose, full gale, horizontal rain, what a mess! Next day fickle gusty winds provided attentive sailing. I found out how the Pollywog handles under reefed main and jib. I was pleasantly impressed.
