Shelia holding the tiller with such poise. She doesn't take direction very well when I signal the tack command to the crew "ready about?" Crew members are supposed to say ready then the captain says, "coming about" before the change in direction or tack. Shelia refuses to say ready! Wind was strong 15 with gusts to 20. Great for practicing skills if you enjoy tacking or jibing every 2-3 min but not relaxing at all! The command prepare to tack and jibe got old real quick. Plus, Shelia did not appreciate the fact I did not bring her any gloves to secure jib sheets. She now has her own gloves!
