The temperature might be cooling but Nauti Dog is still out
on the water! We raced out of the harbor with only the main hoisted while meeting increasing
waves. From the distance a similar sized sailboat was charging towards us. After
they passed us port to port it continue a ways before turning back to chase us.
They slowly closed the distance between us but when there was a chance of them catching us we unfurled the jib.
Nauti Dog immediately jumped forward. Speeding away and increasing the distance between them they gave up their pursuit and turned back towards the harbor. We continued pass a few more governments marks
before returning to the harbor for the evening. Unfortunately there was some bottom growth of the
speedo so we never knew what our speed was. Also we accidentally erased the track on
the plotter so didn’t a total distance either.
