Just a super short couple of quickstops across from UA. Wind was fine, 5-10 NE (less than predicted) and cool overcast weather.

Wind was 8-10NE. Overcast, cool. Heard mayday just as we were getting the sails up but decided vicinity of sparrows point was too far for us to do anything. Listened to the whole drama as we practiced for ≈3 hrs.

Less flakey wind than the last few days. I assume b/c it was SE and not E or ESE. Fairly warm but not horrible. 5-10kts 3.5hrs on #11

Zero wind in the morning for docking and reversing practice, then plenty E/ ESE 8-12 or so in time for member sail. Super shifty as per usual though, and a pretty insane amount of power boat plus regular (dinner boats, watermark, taxis, etc) traffic. Not a relaxing afternoon. James and new sailor Tavitha did well on the tiller managing the shiftiness and crazy traffic planning/dodging.
mid 80s 0-2 E then 8-12 E/ESE ≈ 6 hrs

Took Kevin & Justin out for some reefing, heave-to and more POB practice. Also refined exiting the dock technique. Wind was so promising as we left but died down as soon as we started POBs. Very annoying. 5-10 E super nice weather in the 80s. ≈3 hrs

The couple of mentees who are about ready to check out did some checklist practice and we focused on quick stops. The E wind lived up to its reputation and totally screwed with us though. 5-10 E but very flakey and lots of horrible lulls. Super nice weather though. ≈3 hrs
