Long slow pcrc race out the West River and up the Rhode River. We stayed focused through the frustration, and did well. Got rewarded by a really nice sunset on the way back, so we're lining a very long race.

This Monday night was all about Spinnaker practice. We got dfl on most of the races, but we got third on the last one. 1 hour set and douse were less terrible then the rest. Crab cup is going to be a blast
C and I took A kayak out to cars Beach then back to Davis pub for a burger. Really pleasant evening.
Unfortunately there was barely any breeze. We sailed, though, however barely detectable our forward motion. And the big chop (4+ feet at times) gave me some confidence that the rig won't fall over. Next time, we'll do it with some real breeze.
If the rats are on board, you know the ship can't sink.
Later, a couple of us kbc kids helped Ian set Chinook the rainbow up for sym spin and fly it. This was my first time driving with a sym spin up, whole new level of challenge!
Lovely night of racing, blasting downwind to finish
Another great race with the Vienses and Greg
Practice last week paid off, and we did really well, taking second. Might have given farfegnugen a run for her money if we'd have had more races before the weather came in. Thanks again to Leo for having me!
Had a great practice sale with Nathan. Then took the youngest for a little night fishing on ΔG The test new light wiring and anchor. Still needs a bit of work, especially tying that heavy battery down, but we're close!
Couldn't make it out to Galesville but I was able to sneak out to eastport. Good times in Chessie.
