I was sooo tired last night, that i just passed out watching the storm that hit after midnight. There were some pretty close strikes. Hopefully a weekend without any major storm events. I was out on Sunday, and as I was about to turn around to head back to port, I saw some lightning in the distance, at first I thought I was seeing stuff, then I saw more and figured, not time to sail it back, fire up the Universal and crankup the knots back. Just finished docking when the clouds turned REALLY dark and lightning start to hit and the wind picked up to close to 30kts.

SailBoat: ya, just super cold A few mins go by....... SailBoat: ok I have him on board, but he's cold and says he doesn't need medics to see him MarinePolice: ok we will come and see you after we get his jet ski A few more mins.... Boater is about to arrive at the marina the Police call again and how is it, sailboat said, he's really cold and legs REALLY hurt but still doesn't need medics A few more mins.... The sailboat said, his friend just told us he has a heart transplant! of course the lady on the boat said , no we BETTER get him to medics On Tue, Jun 10, 2008 at 9:56 AM, Letsgosailing < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It never stopped all night.
