From One Extreme to the Other

So today I had my second half of my refresher course, getting comfortable sailing again. Last Thursday was 15-20 winds with gusts higher, got knocked down once on a gust during a jibe... all fun. Today we were lucky if we got 2 in a gust, well more of a puff. I think if I were to have blown at the sails there would have been more wind. Would have liked to rescheduled by that dang job gets in the way. Was still a good day as I was out on the water and worked on some other things. Let the season begin now.....
