Breezing past the point

Steady 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.

Manual Entry

Slow family sail

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.

Manual Entry

Almost a race...

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.

Manual Entry

Windy family sail

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!

Calm and chaos

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.

Search and rescue

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.
