In Response To: You are good (Eric - Seattle - Newport 16)

Took the boat out yesterday. The lake was smooth as glass when I got out there, but after a half hour of relaxing, the wind came. About 8-12 knots wind. What a joy. This is my first real sailboat. I could sail from 3-5mph in this wind on a slight tack with the main and the jib up.

Thanks for the tips.
