boat moving

Today one of my neighbors decided to move his sailboat to another marina, and asked me to go along to help handle the lines.  

Richard (left) and Bob (right) make sure the lines are right before leaving the slip.  We're gonna tow the sailboat toward the Inner Harbor.

Underway: Richard's at the helm controling the boat towing his sailboat.  Bob's handling the rudder aboard the sailboat, and keeping clear of obstacles (like dock fingers).

Now we're exiting the marina entrance.  I've been through the Entrance once; today was the first time I've been out.

Now we're out in the bay & on our way to Richard's new marina.

Richard at the controls.

Bob did a good job with the tiller.

Wind pretty much did the rest, and pushed the sailboat into her new slip.

Now, Calypso is the smallest boat left in the marina.
