Fun to sail with another boat

Colleagues on another boat in the Round Bay fleet reached out to let me know that they'd be out sailing on Wednesday afternoon and asked if I was interested in joining.  I moved some things around on my schedule and was able to go out.  their Catalina Capri 22 had a genoa on it while I had only my jib, but I was nonetheless able to keep slightly ahead going upwind.  Started out with them pointing higher, but having another boat to pace myself against allowed me to adjust things so I could point about as high.  After tacking, went on a beam reach home, and I was able to catch up and pass them after several hundred yards.  They then sent some fab pictures, which was so kind!
