We sailed out of the Grand Street Ramp, (Alameda, CA,) out the estuary beyond Jack London Square and back, east of Coast Guard Island for lunch at Quinn’s Lighthouse, Oakland, with several other Potter folks . . . good restaurant, good food, and good company!

 Don was a great mentor for my first outing on board a Potter P-15. Don reinforced much of what I had learned in Basic Keel Boat Sailing. I came away feeling more confident with regard to channel markers and navigational aids following Don's little instructional lecture on the water. Don allowed me the tiller for the day while he played with the sails. I am anxious to get my Potter out on the water and get started on developing my sailing skills! The adventure begins . . .
