New Scouts and guests go sailing SV Scout and SV Mirage

We love getting new Scouts and their friends out on the water and under sail. Adult leaders got a lot of work done on both boats and we took Scout out under full sail Saturday and Sunday. Swapped out batteries and assessed damage to the headsail on Mirage so we can get her out soon. We also discussed the importance of knowing the weather situation at all times and how to get back into the safety of the harbor quickly. Check out some video highlights and subscribe to Ship5111 on YouTube today.

Nothing makes us happier than having Scouts bring friends and getting back to harbor before the storm.
