This Weekend's Sailing

Noe sailed in two separate races this weekend - the El Toro States and the Bullship.  She had fun despite the oppressive temperatures and humidity.

Always a good time sailing the Windward side!

Shrimping

Noe and Marlon have sailed out of Kaneohe Yacht Club many times now.  Both of them have seen many fish and animals from the docks and this weekend was no exception.  Noe had pointed out to me several times that she has noticed some resident shrimp that live on the short wooden dock along the quay wall.  I suggested we catch some and and take a closer look.  I found a clear plastic cup and she went to work - catching the shrimp by hand.

She was able to show the other kids that were also sailing in the races.  And it started us both thinking about setting up the small saltwater cube aquarium again (but in a spot that wouldn't generate so much heat and algae blooms).

El Toro Racing

Here are the pictures Noe and I took from Sunday at Kaneohe Yacht Club. Marlon ended up getting 4th in his division - great race for this up and comer!!!! Mom and Dad are proud of you Marlon!!! Take down was pretty quick too - great teamwork exhibited by this crew!!!

The Farrier and the Posh YC

The Kaneohe Yacht Club has nice facilities, What appears to be a gem of a snack bar - And this sitting in dry storage (a rather large Farrier Trimaran, a boat I just happen to take a liking to)
