Maiden Voyage

Today I completed the first successful maiden voyage in my sailboat. The plan was to launch from a boat ramp in Port Orange and sail to disappearing island but after gaining enough courage to venture out of launching area I shortly found that I do not know how to read the channel indicators in the intercoastal waterway and was soon scraping the bottom on oysters. Rigging the boat took about two hours to get everything hoisted, tied, and situated.
