Lynne and I went out for a quick sail on Sunday.  We motored up to Jack London with Lynne at the helm and me trying to give her lessons on right of way issues.  As we approached the JL fuel dock I took the helm as the winds were a bit gusty.  After fueling up Lynne backed Wildcat off the dock and we put up the sail and sailed back to the slip on a broad reach/run with Lynne at the helm.  She sailled by the lee at times, but the Nonsuch can sail up to 15 degrees by the lee, so we had no problems.  It was a great day to sail the estuary, a fair amount of wind and quite warm for the SF Bay area.
