Here ya go....

While Loco, Scotty, Ganzy and the rest of your posted away your day, Suzanne
and I took Alien out for a late afternoon sail. We anchored and cooked chicken
and veggies, then sailed some more in the light of a beautiful
sunset......perfect air for the real sailors who bothered to head out...
I let Suzanne do all of the sailing. She's learning about trim and the helm,
doing very well.
We sail again tomorrow!

Winches at the base of the mast? Haven't seen that on any modern boats under
40 feet. Ugly blue fender on deck while sailing? Boom is on the centerline
and the genoa is bagged out?
S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster"

Who is that ugly ?chick? at the helm?

Sorry bobster, but I was sailing from about 4pm until
a few minutes ago. I haven't done lake sailing in a while.
Nice cool water.

Bobsprit and Suzanne enjoying their sail, being careful not to lose sight of
land.

Didn't he say he had a new main? That sail looks pretty baggy.
Don't you love the people that sheet in hard on a beam reach. They seem to
think that if they are heeling, they must be going fast. He's heeling, what
about 30°, in 8 k wind?

Oh, sorry. I see that now. City island, being about 18° off plumb, threw
me.

Hmmm. We can see how little Steve knows about sailing, though he might blame
the angle of the pic.
We are actually too far upwind and the genoa (a 150) is furled down to 120 or
so. The headsail is actually backing, though it's out frame. Suzanne was trying
to make it around Hart Island and back to our slip without tacking again. The
wind near Port washington is generally gusty allowing her to make good speed
too far up.
The big question is why "that's a stupid place for a fender?"

Bwahahahahahaha! Go sailing guys! Bwahahahaha!
