Sunday, 22May2011: Waukegan

Weather:  Sunny and breezy initially.  Severe thunderstorms in the PM.

Sister in law Sharon and nephew Hunter arrived to crew.  Per arrangement, Fred came by again and this time we sailed for the first time!  HR is nimble!  Flew a hull at 7.5 kts.  Waves were a bit rough on a beat, but she points well to 30 degrees apparent.  Can go to 25 degrees, but speed falls way off.

Ceili got seasick down below.

Stormy night, doubled up the lines.  HR weathered well except for small leaks at the mast base.  Pumped the holding tank for the first time.
