Awoke a bit early, made a hearty breakfast, and then announced to the crew that we were going sailing... no matter what. Winds were light all day, but with some real bright moments.  Engines on at 10 am - Winds were out of the WSW 4 kn to maybe seven or 8 kn barometer is 29.82,  temperature was 77°  

Put up the sales quickly and we sailed down Langford Creek and down into and around in the basin. Winds were strong coming down the creek, but were light and then died off for a bit in the Chester. After a half hour of not having much air, the winds  started picking back up nicely, and we were cruising right along. The first mate out a lot of time on both the helm, sheets and  lines and was doing quite well for only her 10th time out for the year After a couple hours of just sailing close haul and reach we decide to head back to the marina decided to go with asymmetrical! We flew that sail all the way back till right outside the marina. Lovely day and at about 330 and then we headed up to the pool.
