Had a pretty good day sail today with my Uncle Joe (69) who is down from RI. He is my wife's uncle and he used to sail Snipes about forty-six years ago which was the last time he was on a sailboat!

Ben...I knew you had a brass pair, but I can't believe you didn't reef today. The winds were 20 knots at Fernandina! Your WK must handle a lot differently than my WB. What part of St. J are you moored?
