This is one of our favorite photos together. It was taken a couple of years after we got into sailing in the San Francisco Bay (2004). You can see the City in the background as well as Alcatraz.  At the time we were sailing about 45 weekends a year and had taken 3 lessons, Basic Keelboat through Basic Coastal Cruising at Tradewinds Sailing School out of Point Richmond. Jesse took these lessons over with me, having taken them before in 1986 in the Seattle area from the Woman Sailor of the Year, Yvonne Howard.
