Welcome to another week on the water.

We switched it up a bit this week, with a knot tying lesson from Travis. Ropes (sheets) are integral to sailing and whether it's a bowline, sheet bend, reef knot or clove hitch, when you need them it's important to be able to do them quickly. To this point there will be a pop test on them all on the next sail. My thanks to Travis. His preparation and teaching style with novices is commendable. 

We still got out for a short sail, however it felt like a winter day rather than late spring. I was glad I brought my heavy jacket. I have attached a photo, this time me on the helm, with Travis and Kristen supporting.
