Last Sail on Elise - Half Moon Bay
at the start - photo courtesy of Serge. Elise had very good boat speed.
We sailed the boat back at night to enjoy the stars and warm weather and Vlad and I drove back to Half Moon Bay to pick up Vlad's car and enjoy a fabulous breakfast at Ketch Joanne.
Out under the gate for one last time
Light air and a superbly well behaved boat
Fabulous conditions
