Notes
- Yesterday’s videos: https://share.icloud.com/photos/0a6mq8c9uExu1Ui9Ncgti_Arw
- Remember to rig up properly; check everything and make sure halyard is up all the way on the mainsail
Practice : hold your lane with your weight trim
- Practice 1: Work today on holding your lane with better weight trim. Never heel in a puff; balance the boat with weight so that it is tracking as best as possible. Downwind, balance, keep weight low, don’t over-use weight trim
- If windy, work on hiking to depower: fore/aft body movement
- doing the rabbit start well will be essential to be able to hold your lane
- Downwind, be agile/active but not too clunky. sail in narrow lanes but don’t put yourself in an obvious foul position (that happened yesterday a few times)
- Drills: Rabbit Starts and “double-mark DW drill”

We just missed National Toot Day, but we will honor it with our Friday foto today.
Did you know:
- toots can travel up to 10 ft./second (that’s 7 MPH)
- the average human toots approximately 14 times a day
- men toot more than women
- tooters who want odor control can buy Shreddies !
- a drysuit-toot is known as a “Dutch oven”
