Weather was rainy in the afternoon. Looked like the worst was going to be at 5.
Nathalie could not available for Thursday so it was only Fabrice and Kevin and we were all going to go by bike. I offered to cancel, but they were eager so I offered to drive them to the club and back.
It was drizzly and windy as we left the dock at 5. Motored to the gut and did a tack and the crew was not ready to race in this weather with. It was a mess. The wind picked up so we reefed the main. The wind did not die down till 7'ish.
We sailed around the lake tacking and gybing. Kevin helped a lot with Fabrice in communications and learning the terms in both languages.
We close-hauled through the gut and back to the harbour, docked and drove back home.
