Mike teaches Ashley to sail by the wind and keep an eye on the sails.
Jacie never thought she learn to drive a boat before she learned to drive a car.
Jackie, John and Ashley keep an eye on a barge crossing Calumet harbor. John is explaining how to tell if we will pass astern or collide with the barge.
Riding the bow really gives you a feeling of the wind, waves and the boat plowing the water.
Cathy was usually hiding behind the camera.
Senette, Troup 195's mascott, promotes safety afloat by wearing her PFD. She accompanied the girls on all three cruises.
