Freezing in Clearwater


I've been in Clearwater sailing for three days already, and the trip can be summed up simply as COLD.  Temperatures haven't risen above 45 degrees, and they have often been in the mid-thirties while sailing.  Despite the freezing conditions, we've managed to have three really good practices so far.  On the first and the third days we stayed in Clearwater and did some boathandling intensive practices, mostly to stay warm.  On the middle day, though, we couldn't say no to a 15 mile downwinder to John's Pass.  It was one of the coldest sails, and even colder tows back up the inner coastal, that I've ever done.  But it was worth it.

Three more days here before heading to Miami to train before the Miami OCR.  Hopefully the weather gets a little better down here!
