6/4/2023: Decided to spend the weekend on the boat and took her out for a nice leisurely sail before we needed to head home.
7/30/2023: Took out our friends Angela, Phil, Kevin and Paige for an afternoon of sailing which included a winch handle going overboard. Next stop was West Marine....
8/26/2023: Watched the SMSA Sharks with Lasers Regatta and did some sailing of our own
Allows boats to come out and try their hand at racing as well as an oppotunity to mentor new or existing crew.
Need to move the boat every other week to SMSA in order to have the bottom cleaned.
5/22, 6/5, 6/19, 7/3, 7/13, 7/25, 8/11, 8/21, 9/4, 9/18, 10/1, 10/16
Participated in the annual Frost Goode Race and as has happened in years past, it was a floater for much of the race with a 180 degree wind shift. So some boats had two upwind legs and others a windward and leward.
Sailed up the Patuxent River to join up with 3 other SMSA boats for our first overnight of the season and first overnight in the "new-to-us" boat.
Needed to learn how the spinnaker furhler worked. Took some of the crew out on 4/18 and things didn't quite go smoothly. There was a second attempt on 4/20 which I couldn't make, but heard the results still weren't what we wanted. We'll keep trying.
