Just a Thursday

It is said that the two happiest days of a boat owners life are the day that they buy the boat and the day that they sell the boat.

I disagree, and I only have one reason. . . Thursday!  If we didn’t own Spy Hop or Tiger I don’t believe that as many sunset sails would have happened.  And, to be honest sunset sails are one of the best parts of owning a boat.

This week on a whim we took Spy Hop out to a new sailing location on Lewis Bay on the south side of Cape Cod.  We launched in the late afternoon and only had sunlight for about 90 minutes on the water.  But those 90 minutes were the highlight of the week and definitely made owning the boat worth it, not to mention the other many adventures that we have had on Spy Hop this summer.

There are many more adventures to be had, but I am very glad that on this day we decided to go sailing rather than stay in the harbor.  Sunset is often a magical time, and I am very happy that on this day we got to view it from this location.
