Episode 8 Chartering the Seawind 1260

Finally, we are onboard our dreamboat, the Seawind 1260, that we chartered with Sail-Away Catamarans ( https://sailawaycatamarans.com/ ). With Captain Mike, Toni and I, withdaughter Monica, we took “Godspeed” out of the South River, into the Chesapeake Bay and set sail with no known destination. Our course was wherever the winds would take us as we had no agenda. We experienced the notorious Chesapeake Bay chop, light winds, no wind, glass seas, motoring, ghosting, thunderstorms, reefing, wind and rain, with very comfortable sailing in all these conditions. The Seawind 1260 was everything we thought it would be. We learned a lot chartering the Seawind 1260 and it gave us a better understanding of the various options which changed some of our original thoughts. The trip gave us an opportunity to try everything, the transom ladder, the outside shower, the cockpit grill, cockpit sink, sleeping, lounging, cooking, anchoring, forward lounge and the wonderful cockpit. Hopefully we can get an opportunity to do this again. Please join us.
