Freedom 40 Sea-trial.....Courageous US-26 continues to look good!

I had a great sail on Narraganset Bay this past week with my  clients Jake&Kay Mast of Virginia. This was to sea-trial the Freedom 40 hull #17. It was a real pleasure to sail with "like new" Quantum sails and helmsman Jake Mast who quickly found the boats groove. This boat is a Pedrick design and plenty slippery!

It's always fun to see what is on the historic waterfront along Naraganset Bay; pictured is the remarkable US-12 "Courageous" that has such a remarkable history. I built sails for the boat going into the 1983 Defenders Trials when after all those years she ably  served as trial horse to Defender. Great to see the great boat shining still!
