HHSA!
I've volunteered to take on this year's Saturday on-the-water training (April 25, 1300-1600). I'm starting to put together a plan now that will include at a minimum man overboard drills (so we can get our annual requirement out of the way), but I really want to know what you and your crews want to practice (note that we will practice starts the preceding Wednesday, 4/22). Respond here, PM, e-mail, call, carrier pigeon, etc. your ideas!

With respect to tacking/ducking, and rounding marks, those are as much tactics discussions as they are boat handling discussions... maybe Prag would be willing to have a bit of an advanced tactics discussion after the rules discussion for those that are interested and then we can practice on our own? I'd be hesitant to do on-the-water tacking/ducking drills and rounding drills at the beginning of the year when we are bit rusty from the winter.
