Finally got her under control and moving out towards deeper water.
Still on a run.  Will be able to drop the board in a minute and then were off.
Board down and reaching out to sea.   Hey!   Where's the chase boat.  Whats'a matter guys motor not big enough to keep up with an itty bitty sail boat.

I want Edna to be able to get some closeup shots.
That's better.  There you are.   How do you like the transom?  'cuz that's about all yer gonna see...

Seriously, Edna says they didn't have any problems starting the motor and getting under way.  Featherwind is just a fast boat.  Chase boat is an 18 foot plywood canoe  with outriggers.  Briggs and Stratton 3.5 HP engine with direct drive.  In all fairness they did catch me but it took 'em a while.
