Another wonderful day on Specific Gravity.  G came with.  I really messed up the spin rigging - nothing that a bunch of practice won't fix!

Took Cirrus out for some solo practice.  Trying to get those tacks and jibes a little more crisp, those roundings a little more smooth.

Thanks to Donna and Jason and Jamie for having me out on celerity.  Great fun as always.

Race alone around a couple of speed buoys pretty well windward/leeward though with a favored port tack.  Focused on tacking slowly at first then quickly, and exiting on a good angle.  Then thunder struck and I buried back.  Quickest solo docking and derig ever, I think...

 

No pictures though.  My bad.

Another lovely day for racing, the wind was pretty variable, and ended up dying off. Pretty bad at the end there.  But learned a lot, including about some new rules, and had a great time with the Annapolis-Salem School crew.  Can't ask for more than that!

More practice rigging a laser, then a bunch of tracks in moderate air, then a race with the eldest.  Then more practice derigging.  You're and smiling, that's a good day.

The youngest and I took a couple of kayaks up Back Creek to kill time while waiting for fireworks.
