We did a day trip down to Chicago for the Air and Water show. Well worth the 9 hrs total underway.
Here are some unique pics you just don't get every day. That's the Tartan flag flying proudly in many of the shots. Tartan

A bit hazy, but some good sailing and a easy time on the hook.

Great pics...

In mast furling? A new stick I suppose?

The original owner (1981-1984) put the furling mast on when that was a rarity. Not sure if it was ordered from the factory with that or if he actually replaced a brand new stick. From '84 until the mid 90's, we were among the few furling mains in the harbor. Now it's commonplace.

We're not the fastest T37, but we never have to leave the cockpit and I can single-hand effortlessly.
