Most boring, in a good way, no wind sailing a Sunfish sailboat on Spofford Lake in New Hampshire USA

Lots of comically overzealous gear, no real wind, but a lot of relaxing time tacking near Wear's Beach in Chesterfield New Hampshire on Spofford Lake picking up the family and floating around. Just enough wind to move! Glad I didn't have my Snark Sunflower, that is terrible in low wind, and high wind too :-). Sunfishes at least can catch a breeze and move a little in almost any wind.

I'm an older achy dad living with my wife and two young kids in the state of Vermont in the USA. I focus on sharing reviews and experiences as we strive to live a simple, education and community-focused, techno-eco-friendly, below-our-means lifestyle. That was a mouth full!

~~~ INQUIRES ~~~
