A beautiful, sunny afternoon with a good steady east wind and a light-hearted crew of three. After a short, intense session on the location of the tiller (Blue Captain training error), we enjoyed a two hour cruise up to the head of Willoughby Bay and back with PiWi at the helm. The limits of acceptable heel were established early-on by the intensity of fingernail pressure on the Blue Captain's shoulder. PiWi then regaled us with stories of Capt Pewich's home abode, faux attacks on a Dutch AF base while in the radio tower, and the "dancing" washing machine. Capped off the day with an antique car show and a fine dinner from Madame (who really earned her seamanship badge today). Gate: 341
