AHOY MATEY: JEWEL ON THE HUDSON


Turns out Dad's friend Carlo is not just a home restorer, kayak instructor, AT hiker and general bro-about-town...he's on the crew of the Woody Guthrie, which, as you know, is a replica of the popular gaff-rigged Hudson River sloop from days of yore. Tonight Carlo swung by and took Raul and Dad out on the WG with some other members of the Beacon Sloop Club for a two hours of jibing, tacking, some Hudson River history and a lot of good clean slooping (?) out on the water. A perfect day for sailing it was!
