Delivering a Tofinou 12 to the boatyard for a client today. 70deg and no wind caused some light fog conditions. The schooner pictured is the Spirit of South Carolina. Took about 3 hours to get from the marina to the boatyard.
On the water today

beautiful! i'm retiring from service next to some nice lakes up north and need to learn about sailing.
I'm an independent contractor working as a boat broker, so I help people buy and sell boats. I mostly focus on sailboats because that's my passion. I have a USCG Captain's license, so I can move boats for pay and have done that in the past. Also used to do daysail charters 10-12 years ago but that got old quickly. I mostly I just move boats to and from boatyards during some surveys/sea trials when needed. Today was me moving a boat for a client who lives in another state but keeps his boat here. He and I have become pals and so I help him with stuff like this for free whenever he needs it, and he generally sends me a thankyou gift like a nice bottle of rum.
Speed wise?? Too long for a 24 beers or more?? Am Mexican every distance means beer lenghts
Ah, the first photo looked like your boat, but I see now it is his.
This boat is pretty quick and can sail at over 8kts pretty easily. It motors at about 6.5-7kts.
