James & Dan K as crew. We had a good start, and managed to get really close behind Dan Z & co but something went wrong approaching canton and I dropped back and couldn't recover. Still a super fun night. Weather was fantastic, in the 70s. Very flakey wind, SE started at 10+ but dropped a lot later. Got there early to check boat out due to reported problem w/job halyard, but we just used the spin one and were fine.

Absolutely fabulous weather in the 70s, much better wind than anticipated. Pretty perfect evening. Took some newer folks out and felt like they had a really nice intro to the boat, so hopefully will come out with us more. Akimbo, 10-12kts SE ≈3hrs

Went out with friends for a gorgeous day out. Almost got to the bridge before turning around. Wind was super shifty thought. 10-15kts ENE. Cool 70s, sunny. 4hrs. The pistachio bloom by dominoes was pretty horrifying though, and there was an absolutely disgusting mass of gulls and dead fish on the docks and in the water.

Lots of practice starts and 3 short races. We had some excellent starts, and did pretty ok/mostly mid fleet in the races. Then there was a debrief at quantum sails with drone footage and coaching tips. Super duper informative. I understand the inhaul settings so much better now. Starts are still a mystery but I'm taking it all in.
wind was flakey. SWish, 5-10. ≈3hrs

Really both days compressed into 1 w/single student. Went great. Discussed topics, gave written test, then coached otw practice until 1ish, then a couple more practice maneuvers, then OTW test. Student nailed it after the morning practice. Felt really great about the coaching. :-)
