Light wind built up to 8-10 knots, mild swell, dramatic clouds, sun came out toward the end. We practiced MOB and emergency tiller. I was challenged twice with MOB drills, first along a upwind leg, then again on a broad reach.

MOB drills, heave to, reefing, sailing in the harbor. Great wind and beautiful weather, dramatic clouds, strong crew. Sailed beam reach back

Wonderful conditions: mild temperature with wind building up to 14-15 knots, 4-6 ft waves. Gorgeous north wind, we coasted on a broad reach then upwind back toward Newport. Along the way we did MOB drill and with such strong wind it was a challenge slowing down the boat. Sailed up the harbor which was busy surprisingly. Fan docked the boat

Stormy, wind up to 18 knots and light rain. We practiced reverse figure 8, backing up to marker, downwind and upwind in the harbor in strong wind and rain, MOB drill

Light wind (2-6 knots), flat seas. Warm sunny day, beam to close reach tacks, MOB drills.

Oasis V race practice vs. Oasis VI. Oasis V skipper was Don Gordon with me as Mate and Oasis VI skipper was Ron Havis with Marco Gambineri as Mate.

Started good wind, then very light and shifty

Light wind overall but we had up to 9 knots

MOB, side docking, docking. Strong current due to big tide swing (ebbing)
