Stephanie and Drew await their first sail ...
...

... along with mom, Shirley. With the winds being a tad brisk, the plan is for ...
...

... Frank to help Kevin sail Wildwood again, while Shirley shepherds the kiddies, i.e. W1071 will be sailing 5 up!!
...

Charlotte Pedersen relaxes while dad gets the boat ready.
...

W3928 (Brewer/Waterhouse) follows Tom and David Graefe out of the harbour.
...

Armed with masthead flotation in the top of their main, Tom and Diane head out in Possum.
...

 

Kit Wallace and crew sail off in Ab faB.
...

Frank lets Wildwood swing around head to wind (such as it is in here!)

so that Kevin can raise the main before the boat is brought alongside where the ...
...

... precious cargo is loaded aboard.
...

And they're off - following solo sailor, Jake.
...

(l to r) Team Brewer/Waterhouse, Jake Maarse, Ivan Pedersen with Suzanne and Charlotte, Team Pegler with Frank.
A bit of milling around off the harbour mouth but at last, we ...
...

... headed north towards Woods Island. Bruce (9665) and Tom (275) sail in tandem.
...

No one could have enjoyed a sail more on this glorious day than ...
...

... the single-handed ...
...

... Jake Maarse.
...

Excellent form for an ...
...

... excellent sailor.
...

Taking the more traditional, relaxed cruising approach are Tom (l) and Keith Brewer
- and of course, Lucy and Al, who are hove to while Al takes some pictures.
