Just left Liberty Landing Marina and sailing in the Ambrose Channel with a favorable current.

Isabel and David are joining me in the journey to warmer water.
Isabel just come back from playing Squash at the 2012 Juegos Deportives Nacionales of Colombia.
She won several  metal (NOT medals) for individual and double.
She is also about to complete her PhD in EE from Brown University.
Her husband David just got his PhD also from Brown and he is about to start a PostDoc position in
Lausanne Switzerland. 
They both are anxious to learn about the physics of sail but mostly to have some good Mahi-Mahi with Pinot Grigio in the middle of the Atlantic.
