Delivered Eighth Deadly Sin from Oak Harbor to her summer home. Did a few small projects while we were underway. Great weather and a beautiful sunset coming down the bay.

First BCYA Tuesday night of the season. Short legs led to chaos and confusion as we tried to fly the spin on the downwind legs. Thanks to Lynn for the pictures.

Inc shortly after the start
First race on Incorrigible for the season. Started learning foredeck to take-over that position this year. After some final prep we sailed to the start and hit an unfortunate lull in the breeze as we were heading for the line. The wind quickly picked back up and we had a strong run down to the bridge and back. Put up a spin for a quick leg near the race and executed a difficult douse well. Good to be learning a new position in depth and looking forward to doing more with that in the future.

Helped take incorrible over to MarineMax to be hauled and have the bottom cleaned for the first BCYA race of the season. Spent some time on the helm on the way back and was neat to see the haul out process.

Went with Jonathan to catch the last of the warm weather before it got cold again. Went partway out to the river but turned around because of the strong wind. Ducked up in another creek then went back to the dock before the temps dropped too much.

Out on Red Baron (Olson 29) for the first SMSA frostbite race of the season. RC set an engaging course and moderately heavy wind kept things interesting. Did some work at the mast and foredeck including troubleshooting a difficult sail change. Finished 6th out of 10 which was slower than I expected based on how the race felt. Glad to be back on the water and looking forward to a good season! Thanks Steve for the picture
