Capsized on Red Flag Day 🚩 (photo by Brett Jordan on Unsplash)
Drove three hours
for a day
of Atlantic coast sailing.
Arrived at the shore
with strong winds blowing
inland from the east

Red flag day for catamaran rentals 🚩
thus no renters renting
No bother,
we brought our own boat

Our catamaran crew;
My friend, an experienced sailor
with his new boat
Myself, an energetic, overconfident
no experience sailor
My girlfriend Patty,
who hates sailing
but evidently liked me enough
to say yes to our quest

We pushed off and settled in fine
about 1/2 mile from shore
with 4 to 6 foot...
