Tax day on the Bay

Saturday on the Bay,

Martha, Minh, Elena and James went out for a short sail out to Thomas Point. As it was the children’s first sail we had a full briefing for them before leaving the dock. Clearly I need to create a before the sail video to help acquaint new sailors to the boat and boat safety rules.

We beat against the wind all the way out past Turkey Island and then we got a nice breeze, a bit cool but nice. From the lighthouse we went south to bring us in to a beam reach coming back in and it was a smooth trip back. With kids and parents on the deck house once we got into Shelly Bay.

Other than some usual kids boredom, and lack of ipad’s to entertain it was a great afternoon. I still need to work more on docking with a breeze as it was a challenge, which we overcame.
