Monday Evening Guster

Monday was the windiest we’ve seen on the boat.  Good, strong, 20 kts or so winds with rolling seas.  We stayed in the breakwater near Navy Pier at first, but decided to venture out on our way back.  We got bounced around almost immediately upon passing the lighthouse.  5-foot rollers out of the northeast tossed us around as we headed south.  Boat was stable which made Justin and I very happy.  Our friend, Mark, was also relieved and doing his best to not appear terrified by our skill level.  We returned to harbor and opened another bottle of wine.  Not sure if it was the wine or the exhilaration, but it tasted great.
