Michael and I hit 3rd on Tuesday with a resounding thud.
It was kind of up and down, so we rigged big sails (5.4 for Michael, 160# and
6.0 for me 194#) but took small boards. We could both just barely
plane, but Michael made it back the launch while I just got further
and further downwind. Inside or out in the channel, I just kept losing
ground until I landed down the bridge.

It was good exercise, but not good sailing.

    "Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever."
    "And he has Brain."
    "Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit has Brain."
There was a long silence.
    "I suppose," said Pooh, "that that's why he never understands anything." --The House at Pooh Corner
