M_Boats: FW: Sailing

Went to Pine Lake with Louie & Sally H today and sailed for 2 hours winds from the NNW @ 3-8 K variable gusting up t o15.5 at one point early in the sail. Boat handled very well with new 4 part mainsheet set up just in front of hatch (same point mainsheet attached with yoke traveler system). Traversed both E & W bays of lake did some downwind sailing wing on wing and returned to slip and had lunch under tent at launch ramp site. Returned to boat and worked on tiller to maintain specific height as tiller was very low in cockpit. **George** **Merry Helen II M15 #602** **'We Can Not Control the Wind** **But We Can Adjust our Sails'**
