Sailing in Vancouver's English Bay and False Creek

So we sailed out of Vancouver harbor on our friend's boat under moderate winds. We were under power for the first part until we could get winds that were strong enough.
 With my sailing experience in Sea Cadets I helped out with raising, trimming, and lowering sails.

 We mostly sat in the covered cockpit area not because of bad or heavily sunny weather but because it was comfy.
 We pulled down our sails to motor into False Creek and past Granville Island. It was super packed with people so it was good we were passed by.





 It was a great experience of a four hour jaunt.
