Log - Get out on the Water - Jun 20, 2015

The "get out on the water" day was organized by Ontario Sailing and we partnered with the Canoe Club next door to offer sessions of sailing and paddling.  Many thanks to Giulio for organizing our part of it!

Quite a few KSC sailors were out helping, but I was one of the few (along with Ken S and Frank) who were taking the cats out.  I grabbed a Hobie 16 (with Mike R's old sails) in light conditions.

Despite a bit of sunburn, the day was tons of fun -- I forgot how cool it is to sail one of those Hobies.  After the Kingston Masters', I'll probably be taking one of these suckers out more.  I've never single-handed one for a significant amount of time, so maybe that's a goal for this year.
