What a hoot.  Many hours of sun, swimming, touring and faking onlookers out with fake wipe outs.

The weather forecast of 3, gusting to 20 was very accurate.  It felt like we experienced everything a boat would in an offshore race in the span of 2 hours.  Confusing breeze, sideways rain with lightning and thunder, becalmed about to throw the anchor out to prevent moving backwards in the current when the breeze died and a 180 degree windshift to sail two legs, out and back, both upwind...  We sang songs, we made up lyrics, we laughed and had a ball.

We took out some neighbors of Mike's that had never been on a sailboat before!  A little while into the trip, we had them working the entire boat with all sails up. A rainbow at sunset, great views of the industrial workings of the city, Fort McHenry and the recently-placed Frances Scott Key buoy made for a great night on the water.

Scott Nixon from Quantum came aboard the BB&G Film boat to co-commentate and tell their sponsorship story during a JWorld Thursday Night race.  It was a perfect night and we got to film all 4 classes.

Great breeze.  We started together with A division in great breeze.  Puffy and shifty.

Coaching Sofia and she took out her own laser and sailed it single handed in 10 knots of breeze!  We didn't do any gybing, but I was still so proud.
