Really nice member sail coaching James, Josh, and Jesse (all Js!) on their quickstops and heave-tos. Got 1 practice docking in and then had to get back in. Gorgeous evening, nice and easy conditions. Wind was SW 5-10, although it did die out at the end.

Incredibly interesting day of measuring Huzzah to the mm. (After spending a day and a half emptying everything off.) Dobbs came out and used a floating measure, graviton, water weights (211+ KG hung off the end of the boom!) to create our test cert. Then we put a few things back on, including the anchor which had sat overnight on the bottom while tied to the dock. Wind kicked off right about then so we could get back into the swing of things right off the bat and shove off against 20kts and moter into it to get back the HH south. Pretty awesome day overall.

Just over 3hrs of low ish wind (3-7 ESE) in stupid hot weather (90s) but at least we got to sail. Coached POBs and docking. (Bhavani and Robert)

Took #5 out with James, Richard & Sarah for a short sail up to anchorage and did a bunch of POBs, then turned around and coached James through an impeccable crosswind docking. Wind was much less than anticipated, probably 5-10max SE. it started SW, but oscillated all the way around by the time we got back. Very warm. Got up to 90 I think.

Took Meghan out with Emma for a little sail past ft Mchenry. Did a little mark rounding before heading back. Weather was great, sunny and warm, breezy enough that we hove-to and reefed to keep it easy. Wind was 10-13SW

Fairly breezy but absolutely wonderful sail with these 3. Wind was 10-14ish ESE, sunny in the low 70s. Couldn't make it to the bridge with the headwinds and time constraints, but still super fun.

Got through almost all the rest of the spring checklist, and then took Richard and James out for some motoring instruction, then sailing and checked the reefing lines, etc out underway. Wind dropped pretty low but we were able to sail back to UA before turning the engine on. Really lovely beautiful day. Sunny and warm but felt a little cool when the sun started to go down. Wind was 5-10 N

No more skipper spots left when I tried to register so went as crew with Albert, Sandy, James and Santhosh. Tried to get a shakedown sail on Sweet Dreams but the starter filed again so went hopped over onto Messin about for a short light wind but gorgeous evening sail. Wind was 5-10 SEish. Cool and sunny.

Started helping Tom go through the spring checklist on Sun, and then grabbed Ekiben and set off for a test sail. Anchored for lunch by Canton, then sailed almost to the Key Bridge, turned down and headed back. Wind was about 7-10 ESE and it was sunny and beautiful but not too hot. Made excellent time both ways, docked back at DSC in just over 4hrs.
