Blowing about 15 kn from the south with gusts of 25. Pretty calm in the mooring field, barely able to maintain steerage, but very lively in J bay. L minded E but was able to hold helm while I put reefs in. J continues to be helpful and interested, released and took up jib sheets, helpful ferrying to and from cabin. With two reefs and jib partially curled, we were very comfortable on beams and close reaches. Overcast on our way back in but rain mostly held off until evening after all. We went to the beach after our sail.

Nice sunny day with a light South-western wind. Did it under sail until the wind died , continued motorsailing.

Our skipper, Fran, brought along her 2 daughters, we spotted ospreys and the first sea lion we’ve seen since late spring, and the Blue Angels flew over us —twice!— in formation en route to an air show. A thrilling day that also happened to include beautiful weather and near-perfect wind!
