Pushed an aggressive position at the start that didn't quite work out but made up time on the first upwind leg, had a really strong run on the first downwind and contunued it around for the second lap, wind died off as we were coming into the finish and we lost some time.

Started the day off with going up the mast on Incorrigible to re-tape the spreaders. Went out toward the bridge, rounded a mark, then ran a long downwind leg back towards fort mchenry with a few gybes. Saw a large storm coming up so we doused and headed home.

More wind than expected, good start, little bit of issues on the downwind legs but figured out what happened and were able to get them solved pretty quickly.

Skeleton crew this week but we were able to get in a race after the afternoon storms. Started well, went up to the first mark, rounded and came back down under the jib. Some jib issues worked themselves out on the second upwind leg and we attempted to put the spin up for the last downwind. As we went to hoist, the halyard shackle caught the lifelines and went up without the sail attached. Finished the second downwind under jib and had to go up the mast after the race to retrieve it. Good learning experience for what not to do in the future.

Strong start and run up to the first upwind mark, rounded, set the spin, gybed, and doused successfully. Second leg was a bit slower as the wind fell off but still managed to make good time. Sailed down for a smooth finish.

Dangrous was back in the water so I went out to help with a shakedown cruise before her first race of the season on Wednesday. Sailed out into the basin be Solomons, put a spin up, gybed, then doused and went up to the bridge and back under the number one. Good day out on the water despite the rainy weather and the Dangrous crew is happy to have her back in the water for the season.
