Opti Practice

Thor and Meta went out in high winds today Aug. 9th to practice before the Pram Power regatta. Thor sailed his new boat for the first time. The kids sailed around human bouys! Ron Rosten was the windward mark while Greg Simon was the leeward mark. Both kids learned quickly that hitting the bouys was more fun than rounding wide. Other highlights included a tip-over drill. Thor and Meta tipped over several times and learned how to right their boats. Each came proficiant on bailing an Opti dry.
