Time Out Sailing

10/05/2026

Moderate NW winds holding in the 20's this afternoon. Single reef in the main and full Genoa once through the piers had us broad reaching at 8.5kts up the north shore. Peak colors are happening up the shore which means Duluth will be turning in the next two weeks. Had a great Mn family with two kids attending UMD. So they where hearty and well prepared crew. Plan to run tours the next couple weeks and still need to bring Surfer Rosa back from Bayfield if anyone wants some offshore time, give a call. Thanks for the Harbor photo Hagens!

Tucked behind the dodger reaching down the harbor. The surface water on the lake is slowly cooling this season. Really comfortable conditions out there as well with NE winds 12-15 and 2 ft waves well spread out. Perfect day on the water.

Great afternoon winds fill in this time of the year! We still have mid week afternoon sails available through the change of the season. Summer is still here and fall colors are just around the bend.

Gray bird day in Duluth as northeast winds continued. Fun to sail past the 1942 SS Alpena! The oldest operating steam ship/ freighter on the Great Lakes. As a ship geek its always a treat to see her smoke stack puffing as it breaks the horizon coming into port. Its crazy to think that they shortened her by 180 ft so she could get into tighter spaces in years past. Looks good to me! Keep on keeping on Alpena!

Leonard on board as deck hand today! He started up the mast retrieving a skyed halyard from the previous day spinnaker hoist. I'll own it... the shackle released.. time to switch back to the fail safe bowline. Time Out riding on zephers all day just trying to keep speed up. Hardest conditions to sail in. Lots of sail changes but she coasted right along. Our evening group took a polaroid of us, cool to capture this on carbon. Great day!

She said yes! Way to go Lance and Paige! We had a perfect August offshore breeze with west wind kept us moving with no seas. Parents sent us this photo as they watched from Enger tower and then surprised us at the dock as we came in. Duluth and Lake Superior at its finest!

Time Out on her annual day with Camp Lafayette on Park Point. Great August morning to sail, anchor off the beach, and in true Duluth fashion... the kids jump off and swim in 64 degree Lake Superior.
