Hank bought a nice Cal 39, and while he's been sailing in the Carribean, Mexico, and even the offshore trip back from Hawaii, this is his first big boat. So I got to do a few days of sail training in the San Juan Islands. What a delight! Hank is a fast learner, asks good questions, and brought his son Bryan for an overnight at Spencer Spit, and Rachael on Sunday. We practiced docking, motored, sailed, reefed, anchored, and scouted several locations for later trips. What a treat to be in the San Juans! As always, I try to get shots of the boat, locations and crew, and hope you enjoy the pics, half as much as I enjoy the time with all of you - thanks!
