Harry Breaks a Shackle

Fitful winds -- we watched the Coast Guard windvane shift 60 degrees as we approached the 1AH mark. We were trying to sail too close to the wind, and not gybing aggressively enough, which ended up dragging us too far to the east. As we started running into the wind and making our way up the Bay and finally getting good wind, the jib shackle snapped (probably I didn't lock it well.)  

In spite of my mistakes, great day out on the water and learned a lot, and made 15nm under the keel.
