Guildive Cruises Blog

We made it from Easton and tonight around 11 pm we will be transiting the Cape Cod Canal.  Some good sailing, some good motoring, and of course some good motor-sailing.  There are 5 of us northbound, Haley and Maggie Chutz, David Shepard, and of course Zander and myself.  Our track this year took us from Easton, north through the C & D canal, down the Delaware Bay, and straight across towards Buzzards Bay… no NYC this time. We had some great S/ SW breeze 15- 20 kts so we set the sails right as we entered the Atlantic and had a great day and night of sailing.  Unfortunately, once the sun came up the next day the wind fell right off… back to turning on Mr. GM.  Guildive is doing great, I think she is happy to be back moving through the water and not on jack stands anymore, of course we have not stopped tinkering with the rig, sails, engine, electronics, etc. but thats just natural!!  The crew, well 4 of the 5 are happy, poor Maggie is testing her stomach and finding that it prefers to be on land but today she is moving around and even eating!!  I will post some pictures once we get to Maine as the internet reception is very poor, and we need to use the computer to get some weather.  Also check our facebook page (Ketch Guildive) in a few days for some more pictures.
