What'd be super nice is a small dinghy with an erectable mast and rowing locks, but they ain't cheap. The only flaw with your sweet little ride is it only seats one. BTW, how'd you generate the sailing plot? GPS?Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03151606139770259745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059304.post-70693410818164675612007-06-17T19:56:00.000-04:002007-06-17T19:56:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03151606139770259745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059304.post-62581037049827019272007-06-05T21:22:00.000-04:002007-06-05T21:22:00.000-04:00I'm speechless and jealous, Dan.

The Pentagon marina, known as the Columbia Island Marina, I think, is open to the public. The Tidal Basin by the Jefferson Memorial, though, is closed off. There are gates that allow water to flow into the Basin at high tide, the idea being the tidal action could be used to pump this water for city use once upon a time. But no vessels can pass into the basin. There are paddle boats for rent, though.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10049594094112659236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059304.post-18302717967062764542007-06-02T16:50:00.000-04:002007-06-02T16:50:00.000-04:00In looking at your Family Circus-style sailing rou...In looking at your Family Circus-style sailing route, it occurs to me that sailing in a densely populated area must be very interesting. Are you allowed to sail into the Pentagon's little arena-like harbor? Or the Pool between the Jefforson Memorial and the Mall?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
