Sunday Afternoon

Had a nice sailing day today with Scott, Suzanna, Celia, and Sam. I might have liked a bit more wind, but we never did have to start up the motor. Finally getting Scott onboard after all this time was fun, and since he understands free body diagrams, he caught on to sailing quickly. Using his GPS was fun for logging current speed, average speed, and position. We topped out around 5mph, so obviously it wasn't quite a white-knuckle sailing day. Celia is a med student from Germany who visited our church today for the first time. She's been here for a few months but is headed out in 2 weeks. Sam and Suzanna have sailed with me lots of times of course. The boat is still sitting on its trailer at the waterfront waiting for more wind for another day. I'll dismantle it for the week on Wednesday morning. Pictures of today's sail coming soon.
