Yes. He's a pretty cool, laid back guy. We raced spinnaker with three adults,
myself on mainsail, his son did foredeck and genoa trim, and Dave steered.
Eight to ten knots of breeze that tapered off at the end. He nailed the start
and we had two downwind legs with the spinnaker, so we were quite busy. Ben
had his two kids aboard and they stayed safe and out of the way and brought us
luck. No hollering, no fussing or cussing. Very fun. We took second place.
I'm still learning how to get more out of the main and learn what his boat
likes.

Hey guys,
FWIW, Chesapeake Bay racing has started. I crewed on a C&C 99 for a Wednesday
Nite race on the Patapsco River, actually Rock Creek Sailing Association, near
Baltimore. And Annapolis has started their series. Here's a brief video worth
watching.
