A Family Cruise

So, for Father's Day, we headed back to Rockport for the cruise out to Tiki Beach. We left at sunrise from Austin, and arrived in Rockport around 10am. I quickly got the boat ready to go and left for Tiki beach with our dog, Jack. Carmina and Alex stayed behind for a fast sail out to the beach on Bill Coxwell's F-31.

Here's a video of Jack and I under way.

We had a great time at the pot luck on the beach with the Rockport Yacht Club. After dinner there were some fireworks, and we headed to bed. The Tramp has fairly flat nets. So, we found some single tents from Teton Sports that fit perfectly on the nets, and then we put single size blow up mattress in - very comfy on a small boat! The next morning, it was a challenge to roust the crew from their slumber!

After taking Jack out for a shore side bathroom break, we had a great downwind sail back to Key Allegro. Check it out ...

A wonderful gift of their company with me on Father's Day!
