NauticEdSteady 10-15 but not wet. Flew #1 with no regrets. We tried to outrun the Sea Queen, but they eventually overtook us as we passed the point. Open seas quite high, but Liza waited to splash me on the return. Lovely sail with a lovely lady.

Gentle breeze, just right for a baby standing around eating crackers. Liza helmed mostly with a perfect landing. Special guest Andy couldn't get enough of Julian's Mandarin.

Gentle breeze got us out of SH channel but a large wind shadow kept more than half the boats from reaching the starting line. Oh well.

Reefed and storm jib, headed toward the bridge into the wind with a bit too much heel. Should have sailed off the wind and tacked across the bay for better comfort. Should have also considered breezy point given tides and wind direction. Sarah's first sail!

lovely wind for a lovely sail until there was none on the return. where did all the wind go? after paddling for more than an hour and losing ground, we prepared an anchor but lucked out with a rescue tow.

Sheepshead Bay to Brighton Beach, United States
Rowed out, dropped the dinghy back at dock. Sun and clouds, but none is the forecasted wind for the first hour or so. Flying the #2, had to hunt for wind until the 20 kt gusts arrived and didn't leave. Thankfully Aaron was able to get a reef in despite no pre-rigging but it was chaotic and we actually did it twice.

Almost 40F and sunny, steady winds and flat waters. Wanted to sail Wizard, but found it wasn't on the mooring! Went searching and found, rescued by Josh, Bobby, and John.
