The 2017 Annual Chesapeake Poster
You want an ethereal out-of-body experience? Sail at night.
With a steady wind and a helmsman(woman) you believe in, your ride is a sleigh ride slipping over waves; suspended somewhere between tension and ease.
With everything taut and the stays groaning, the cockpit feels like a hollow, where one can choose to crouch or to perch.
The mast seems taller, the boom seems bolder.
And the Moon? A bonus causing streams of sparkling, dancing light. “Bring it on!” you say into the wind, fearlessly.
