February 19, 2006

Ordinarily it is my job to go forward and do all of the sail handling.
The weather was nice today and the sea was stable,
so Jill wanted to try her hand at raising the staysail.
She did an outstanding job.

Just been thru the whole gallery and felt like I was right there. If you don't mind scooting over, I'd like to come along for the rest of the voyage. What a great adventure.

Looks like a beautiful day to have the wind in your face with that intoxicating smell of salt water :) Excellent!

Just read Robin's comment below. Guess GMTA... :-)

Good idea for cross training. Soon, you'll be able to sit in a hammock and have Jill do it all! (j/k!!!)

Nice framing, btw...

Lovely weather. Keep developing her skills and confidence and you can just stay in the cockpit and steer with your big toe! ;-)
