8.7- Optimists collide in Smith's Creek



The Optimist fleet has been busy for the past couple of months teaching kids how to sail.

The Optimist dinghies are featured in two previous posts, one of the naming ceremony and blessing of the Optimists on June 1, and then two pictures of the boats sailing, taken from shore on June 9.

Today I rode up the bridge over Smith's Creek to get some better views of the Optimists in action, and caught this slight collision as the kids were practicing tacking.
