Took Rachel and a friend sailing on Saphira out of Alameda. We just tooled around for a few hours.

The girls took turns steering and feeling how the boat reacts. All went well until the wind picked up suddenly; the girls were a bit alarmed when the boat started heeling (about 20 degrees).

After reefing all was again calm and we eventually made our way back.

I can't say I'm a fan of the modern Hunters.
