We had a phenomenal practice with 6 of the 7 women we'll be racing with at the Herrington Harbor Women's Regatta on June 11th down in Herrington Harbor North.  We all got on the boat with only the bow and skipper roles decided and fluidly firmed up the rest of the roles on the boat.  Phrases like "I will do any position needed" and "we DEFINITELY want Claire on the main" we passed around and everything just fell into place effortlessly.  Having none of the owners on board, we had to think about every thing and when a question arose like "how do we fold the prop?"  "what's the tuning guide for a J105?", etc., some one (different each time) took it upon themselves to take it on.  Someone knew how to do each thing and it will be added to their role on the boat to make sure those things happen.  Also fantastic over hearing things amongst the team like "I'm so stoked to finally get to sail with you!" and "Oh, I can pull on the vang during the jybes in light air to help that top batton pop" and "on the J105 I race on, the traveler is set up this way, which could probably solve that" just melted me.  Rock star sailors sorting it out to be a cohesive team in seconds FLAT.

Not to mention the whole delivery there and back thing!!  Logistics.  WEE!
