At dawn’s early light

I hate getting up before first light but I do love seeing the sun rise while under sail. These photos are from on our trip over the windy Easter weekend out of Victoria, across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Port Angeles and then Sequim. We had a great sail there and on the return we had one of our favorite sailing days so far. 20-25 knots of true wind behind us, main sail only (with a preventer) – lovely.
