Had two J-24 with three students per boat with a jr. instructor on the
second boat. Twas the second of a two 4-hour class. Mostly practiced
tack/jibe, MOB, heave-to, getting the feel for sailing, since they had
basically zero experience before the class. Sailed out of Treasure Island,
up toward Bezerkeley, then down below the Bay Bridge, tacked in front of the
CG installation, then back under the bridge, and home. Wind started at about
10 kts, picked up to 17 or so with some whitecaps showing at slack.
It was Opening Day, but we avoided the congestion since it was a class.
Still, lots of boats banging around the tail end of the Slot. Air temp was
very moderate with haze in the morning, then clearing. Had a long sleeve
shirt and a windbreaker, and was plenty warm, even in the general Slot area.
