First Sail on Puget Sound

The stem fitting repair seems to be successful!

We put into the water at Boston Harbor near Olympia, and proceeded to Hope Island, where we anchored for about 90 minutes, and then returned. Total time was around 8 hours, including some rather calm conditions in the early afternoon. Later, though, the wind really kicked up and we sailed home with about 15 knots. Excellent!
