Brisk and spirited day on the bay. Winds 15-17 knots with 25 knot gusts

Weather was perfect. 6-8kn in the morning and 10-14 in the afternoon. Performed all the maneuvers, tacking, jibing, more tacking. The crew and experience was amazing.

At the dock, executed training for spinnaker hoist jibe and douse. On the water, - practiced helming upwind and downwind under main only to train helm and mainsail trimmed. - successfully launched kite and performed three jibes - had issues raising headsail in preparation for douse. Doused with jib halfway raised. - cleaned everything up, untangled lines and rehoisted jib without issue. - then jib halyard broke free on our last tack and skyed. - safely motored back into slip - retrieved and stowed halyard

It was a great day on the bay. Wind and seas were perfect for teaching. Winds were steady 10-14 knots all afternoon/evening. Crew was great and was able to get two newcomers out on the water.
