Saturday 2nd July 2022

Welcome to another week on the water.

Saturday was yet again another fantastically sunny and wonderfully calm day. It was ideal for mowing lawns and hanging out washing. Despite that we still took Shiraz out and got a little bit of sailing in (hit 3.5kts) before it went completely still and we bobbed around with the waves. Our practice focused on manoeuvring in low wind conditions, using the tide to our advantage, and even using the wake from other vessels to assist. Outside of that we enjoyed some music and the very nice winter sun. 

This week's photo shows the crew on the way back in, with Kristen on the helm. While Travis may hold the speed record, I think Kristen takes the lead for parking skills, putting Shiraz back in its pen near perfectly.
