I went on my last sail of the year last weekend. As this photo shows, the sky was a brillant explosion of color. I was out on the Shearwater, a beautiful boat on the Hudson where a friend is one of the Captains. I have been out twice on that beautiful boat. They serve a nice Prosecco and I must say Friday was no exception.

I also joined the Manhattan Sailing Club this year and I would suggest it for all those who want to sail in New York City. One of the best parts of the sailing club is the barge in the middle of the Hudson. It is a great place to go out for a drink. I always have the Cote du Rhone, Guigal.
