We just played around in the wind. Sometimes we did S turns, sometimes we flew the chute. It was a relaxing day. Photo: Jim Adams

That Hunter 216 was moving along nicely in the light 2 - 5 mph breeze. Photo: Katie Heyerly
Even though Katie and I had very little wind for the first 45 minutes, we were able to make the most of it. Photo: Katie Heyerly
Katie was asking questions like, "How much would it cost me to get into a little sailboat?" She was clearly enjoying this day. Photo: Mark Barr
Shelly and Kevin Grigbaum had a crew of 2 on board, Alicia & Bill Stewart.
I enjoy sailing in light air. It makes this a game of finesse. Photo: Katie Heyerly

It was a drag race without the race... Two boats side-by-side are always racing, right? Photo: Shelley Krigbaum
It was a great day in the sun. Everyone seemed to be getting what they
needed. Photo: Shelley Krigbaum
Shortly after this photo, we turned back upwind and headed for the dock.
