No sailing today... bummer

.


Well the good news is that we are not having a drought!

This photo of today's class is a bit misleading, since we had 19 sailors willing to brave the rain (sorry, but we also had lightning).

The advanced sailors had a lesson on WEATHER with Coach Cornford; the beginners had a review and got started on the POINTS OF SAIL along with maneuvers (what's the difference between TACKING and GYBING again?) and RIGHT-OF-WAY.



This class covers a lot of material, it is basically the equivalent of a college-level course. We've had our 1st written assignment for the semester, they have been graded (congrats to all, the lowest grade was the equivalent of a B- impressive but after all it was an open-book test) and will be available to be picked up at LCDR Tyson's office on Thursday afternoon.
