Raced in the nonspin fleet and won all three races! Barely a breeze for all three races but the temperature was in the mid-70s. Pleasant weather.

Took a friend out with a strong 15 knot NW breeze. We got up to 6.5 knots with just the mainsail flying. Beautiful weather.

First time in a couple of years that I inflated my SUP. No leaks, thankfully but some of the glue on handles, attachment rings were peeling off especially the housing for the rudder. Despite these issues I went out on the water. My stroking form needs to be honed but I didn't lose my balance. Good times.

Tried out my sports camera for the first time. Mounted it to the Bimini frame. Got about 45' of sailing before the battery went dead. Experimented with Genoa car leads and was pleased with the "new" 24:1 mainsheet fine adjustment tackle.
