STOUT RETURNS - The guided missile cruiser USS Stout returned to Yorktown Weapons Station as only the fifth ship this year. The Stout was deployed off Iran for at least four months, along with a dozen or so other DDGs. The family on board Let's Go Sail were mesmerized by the ship's route diagonally up the river and then head-on to the Coleman Bridge. True to form, the bridge got stuck at the closing, but only for a few minutes. We could see people on the catwalk as it was suspended in the air. williamsburgchartersails.com

FURLER GENIUS – In just six hours, Glenn Bates and Evan Harrell of Performance Rigging in Hampton replaced my 25-year-old jib furler by linking the topping lift atop the mast to the anchor chainplate to remove the old rig and install the new one. That saved $1,000 and a full day of labor normally required by dismasting the boat. williamsburgchartersails.com
