Good Practice..

Three great days of laser practicing in Marina del Rey.. We had in some of the best conditions I've ever sailed up here! Winds were a brisk at 14-18knots all three days. Frightening huge waves covered the ocean. My laser (14') seem like a cork in a big bathtub. I mean these were really big waves! Sailing in breaking ocean wave made it extremely challenging for all sailors both upwind and down. Some great surfing brought my boom to the middle of the boat more then once. All in all it was big grins for everyone. Our group consisted of Vann & I out practicing for our LMW.. Terrance, Sumeet, Michael and Sanjai were out getting ready for the Laser Nationals at California Yacht Club that starts on Thursday. Unfortunately the two events overlap and I won't be able to sail the Nationals at my home yacht club. But my boat is all loaded and I'm ready to go! Three more days of work and I'm off! The excitement is building!!!
