Our first sail of the season - beautiful beam reach most of the day from Portland to Boothbay Harbor, our C&C 41 topping 9 knots! Unfortunately we took our eye off the current when we pulled up our first anchoring attempt (too close to lobster pots) and drifted into ledge. In the pounding I couldn't think straight to weight the boom and heel so our deep keel could tip over into being a not-too-deep keel....Help came but not soon enough. We have a brand new (1-day of use) North Sails 125% genny if you have a boat like ours with furling. Don't forget all your tricks when you head out!
