Last 2012 Lake Michigan sail

I had the opportunity to go for a gorgeous fall sail on Och!, a J105 owned by one of my Chicago friends. We had a great {but cold}doublehanded sail out of Waukegan Illinois {north Chicago} and I was able to shoot some video of it with my go pro. Enjoy the ride with us by viewing the links below.

Corsair Dash 750 demo

This is the actual sailing demo (part 1&2) with Bob Gleason, owner of the Multihull Source in Wareham Massachusetts. It was a beautiful fall day with 10 knots of breeze with the boat doing speeds of up to 13 knots! Enjoy! Check out Corsairs' website at www.corsairmarine.com

Corsair 750

I had the opportunity to sea trial a 2012 Corsair 750 at the Multihull source in Wareham, Massachusetts with Bob Gleason this week. The Corsair was a lot of fun! Check out the ease of setup demonstrated in these videos. Sea trial video to follow soon. See Corsairs' website at www.corsairmarine.com

While the Velux solo race is on hold, I have decided to purchase the Lager/Wiggers L40 custom built racing yacht known as Lost Boys. While the delivery to Milwaukee will not take place until spring 2013, check out our proposed lake Michigan transit from St Joes courtesy of Google earth.
