Sunday. Went out sailing with Katja and Scott -- flew my spinnaker for the first time -- brand new sail -- looks real pretty and pulls well. Then we put up twin heads'ls -- two triangular sails flown side by side from the front of the boat. It was beautiful. Katja said it looked like butterfly wings. Scott and I thought it looked like something just as beautiful but a whole lot sexier. Came back, had a big old lunch, then Larry helped me practice my "man overboard" skills. Floating in the dirty water, still attached to my harness, figuring out the best way to climb back aboard. FAR more difficult to climb back up over the side than I would have believed. Will hang foot-ropes over the side -- short loops for footholds.
