SDA69 How Many Sailors Does it Take to Change a Light Bulb?

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we cruise up the Chesapeake Bay to Annapolis. Dave polishes his stanchion at sea. We discover beautiful anchorages filled with a type of jellyfish called 'nettles'.
We fly my favourite sail, our spinnaker!
Until our autohelm bites it.
When we get to Annapolis, our achor light fails... time to climb the mast.
