Sailing on Spartina with Steve Earley

story here: http://www.eyeinhand.com/Marginalia/?... Sailing in Hampton Roads off Norfolk, Virginia, with Steve Earley aboard Spartina, the John Welsford designed Pathfinder he built. This is a blustery day. Winds 10 to 15, gusting to 25. At 8:40 we get nearly knocked on our ear. Lot's going on in the harbor, as the Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race just ended, and many were weighing anchor and heading for home. Aircraft carriers, cruise ships, barges, the works.
