SUP route
Sailing route
I was determined to get a century club day in today and the forecast was iffy so I hedged with two outings.
Outing #1 on an SUP off SMSA. I felt much better this morning and glassy conditions led me to head out to Drum Point and back. Made 4ish mile run in a little over an hour and enjoyed a nice ride.
Outing #2 on Dangerous for some Screwpile prep. Much heavier conditions than we were expecting led us to put the #3 up, and worked with some new crew members on basic tacking maneuvers. Briefly got the spin up, but true wind near 20kts had us behind the power curve on managing it so we doused before the first gybe. Saw 7+ kts and got a little taste of what the boat will do under a kite in heavy air. Did some more upwind practice before hightailing it to the harbor to outrun a looming thunderstorm.
