Lake Monroe sailing 1st time 05/04/14

The first time I took the boat sailing on my own was with a friend of mine.  The wife and kids were out of town and the wind was perfect at Lake Monroe.  We just put up the main sail in a steady 15 mph wind.  The boat cruised at a steady 7 Knots with very little effort.  You can see in the pictures I did not even have the sail luff trimmed correctly.  I probably needed to raise the head a bit more. But, it was a very relaxing day just cruising around the lake.  It was my friends first time sailing.
