Solo
5 3/4 hours, 15.6 miles solo tripBeautiful day out playing with container ships in English Bay. They are big and even though I had the right of way I quickly moved out of the way when it looked like the container ship wasn't going to avoid me.

10.4 miles, 4 hoursSailing over to Horseshoe Bay with Todd and his kids Kierra, Mia and Harvey. Strong winds in the sound made for a fun ride. It was the first time for all of them and a good time was had by all.

5 1/4 hours, 12.6 miles solo tripInteresting sail with first too much wind, then no wind, then too much win again. Love the water even when it is a struggle to stay upright.
