Kicking back

Heaved to on a starboard tack, stand-on vessel to just about everyone else. Or in non-sailing parlance: going nowhere fast on purpose and everybody has to go around me.

Location is the Barnett Reservoir outside Jackson, MS. The boat is a homemade Argie 15, an older Dudley Dix design.

Hardly top-tier sailing content, but we need to start somewhere.

From my looking at the video, I can open it and watch it. I’m happy to keep it.

Looks a bit choppy out there, but a beautiful day!

OP here. I was also testing links to MP4 video. Clearly I should have posted this on YouTube instead.

Mod(s), please feel free to dispose of this as you see fit.

Funny you say that. As I recall, it was just about this point when I heaved to that I realized I had been dragging a line in the water for awhile. It was embarrassing.
