2008 Fall Racing = Kids on boats!

Well it was about time to take the kiddos on a sailboat race, in order to do this safety, the newest boat in the fleet was called up for the task, the Ranger 23. Joe, Vic, Hannah, Noah, and myself all loaded up on the Ranger Danger and headed out to do a few races in the fun series that was put on in the harbor. There were a lot of boats and it was fun to take it easy and watch Hannah enjoy all the marine life and other boats. She was a blast to have on the water. Granted the two month old(Noah) had no clue what was going on, he loved the motion of the boat and slept nicely in his car seat down below.

The ranger is a great little boat for Oak Harbor, shallow draft, very stable, and TONS of room in the cockpit and down below, and it even sails fairly decent! Hannah took a few turns on the helm and seemed to enjoy bossing me around. I look forward to getting the kids on the water more in 2009.
