Equestrian Sail Day! My riding friends got off their high horses for a sail yesterday. Sailed conservatively as winds were 11-14; not sure if I’d have to reef or not. But hit 7.2kts just on the jib downwind. As predicted wind lessened significantly down to 5kts and we put up the main for the return windward leg. Good practice for me to manage sails and not just driving.

New sails
A few of us took the boat for a sail Saturday taking advantage of the perfect wind to get more acquantied with the new sails. I handed over the helm to sit on the low side to take photos of a fellow club boater.

Volunteered my boat and a crew member to host some young sea cadets for an annual event held at Spring Cove Marina. An all day event aimed at introducing youth to sailing. I delvered my boat to the marina, volunteered one of my crew (merchant marine) to take them out of a sail that day. I helped kick off the event by introducing myself and sharing my sailing experience with the attendee's. Made some connections for possible future crew.
