Woohoo! I'm so happy that #AbleSail #VictoriaBC has opened up their season early this year! It opens up on April 15 at one of our 2 locations! North Saanich Sidney Yacht Club location has registration open now 😁⛵️

I'll be back on the waters this Spring 🤩
I missed almost all of last season due to work commitments.

Took my Mohawk sister-friend, Ojistoh, out for her first sail. Gorgeous weather today & we had some nice breezes on the ocean ☺️⛵️💗

Party waves. Not really. So many boats were out today. These weren't as big as some other wake waves from powerboats. I couldn't film anything when those larger wakes hit us because I was busy angling sailboat to counter them.

Astrid(on the left) gave me some good news when I returned from my sail today. The Able Sail Victoria program will be extended into September. I'm stoked! I can get in more sailing practice 😃👍⛵️

I had a fantastic sail adventure today. Took my friend, Nadene, out for her first Martin 16 sailing experience. She loved it & took a ton of photos. We had fab winds on the waters today & I got to do a lot of keeling 😀 Fun time, on the ocean, on a gorgeous day!

Our rescue rangers came fast & pulled sailboat, far away from the rocks.

My first sailing accident. Got caught on rocks. I was able to dislodge sailboat but waves kept pushing us back towards rocks.

Visibility was almost nil on waters for most of my session. I found some pockets of wind & took advantage of those, as often as I could.

It was really foggy out on the ocean today!
Almost no winds until we reached mouth of the bay. I was happy to take Mom out for her very first sailing experience ☺️ She found it to be very relaxing. We saw some seals, mergansers, few American coots & a couple of buffleheads.
Back at RVYC on August 22.
