Cruising After CORONA2 Words & Photographs by BRIAN CALVERT
My prediction was accurate again, the strong winds of the week before had abated to a small ripple for our voyage, leaving the race boats ghosting along in the light winds. When we last left you, we were bound to stay in one place due to the restrictions and costs to go to our favorite destinations. There have been a series of changes that have eased up on both on the paper work and our wallets.

It was my plan to rise early, do one quick dive with one of our passengers, Priam and then depart.
