We sailed again and you all stayed home, went to lame jobs or sat

We took Heart of Gold out in some very nice wind, but again opted to
fly the jib alone. Right around 5:00 or so we caught some really nice
air, steady at 17-20 knots, though it dropped back down 1/2 hour later.
We raised the main after that and just flew!
It's feeling like fall here...more each day. The light jackets are out
to stay.

Get that wheel wrapped and it will be a lot warmer, as well as offering a better
grip without having to clamp your hand so hard.

It does look like you had some decent wind. The chart for execution Rocks only
takes a measure every 60 minutes, so it would be hard to argue that you didn't
have periods of even higher wind.


Such a decent wind he passed on raising the main....sailed by Jib only.
Typical tender bent-a-toe.

Wind here is calm..low59 high 83 perfect temps!
