Aquavit has launched!

Let the 2010 sailing season begin! Aquavit has launched (is in the water).

Lots of clean-up to do this weekend, but hopefully we can go for a sail, too.

We are participating in the Leukemia Cup sponsored by New York Yacht Club in Newport, RI on June 5th with Erin and Mark Ward. This is in memory of our friend and coworker, Sabina Hayes, who died tragically after a very brief and instense battle with leukemia in March 2010. Sabina was only 40 years old, perfectly healthy until diagnosed, and left behind a large family, many friends, and a husband and young daughter. Here is the link if anyone would like to support our participation and raise money for research in fighting this horrible disease:

Oh, and Captain Curt has made it clear that Team Sabina is out to WIN in our cruising class!

Happy Memorial Day weekend....
