We always try to time our boat moves for favorable winds and seas. Lets face it, we have the time - so no need to move the boat when it is not a good time. A common sailor saying is: The most dangerous item on a boat is a schedule.
As we were heading southwest, with following seas and wind, having a pleasant sail, we saw this guy northeast. You can get some decent seas in Long Island Sound, especially when heading against them. This catamaran we passed must have been on a schedule.
We got our first Covid shot at a CVS in Newport RI. and after waiting the 4 weeks it was time to get the 2nd shot. Since we had gone with Moderna on the first shot we needed to find a spot where they offered the 2nd. Port Washington Rite Aide was the spot so we planned the walk up to the store and then planned on the second day being a "recovery" day. The first shot didn't have a huge impact other than Kris not being able to move her arm for two to three days but we had heard the second shot had more issues.
So today we have laid around the boat with all the side affects that were predicted, tiredness, headache, muscle pain, chills, fevers, and nausea. Hopefully tomorrow gets us back to normal because these side effects suck.
