Close Hauled In Southport

I think the title, as I labeled it in the video, incorrectly says November.  But, more accurately, I think it was the last weekend in October.  Couldn't have ordered up more of a Chamber-Of-Commerce weather window, though, temperature-wise.

This is from the "lab" portion of my ASA 101, Basic Keelboat class.  Check out ASA's award winning Cape Fear Sailing Academy.  Kevin Hennessey delivers top-notch instruction.

The song is Eric Johnson's "Gem", from Up Close.  Hope you like it.

Just Joking

Here's one of my favorite films from last year.  Sometimes you just come across those things that you'd have done it the same way, if you'd have done it or if you could have done it...


Fly Fishing is a Joke from Henry Harrison on Vimeo.

And sometimes, it's a combination of finding the words and the images, and bringing them together in a way that is greater than the sum of those parts, to make something that you wished you'd have imagined, yourself.

Thanks, Henry!  And, well-done sir!
