For fun a few weeks ago our family got both of our sailboats out for a few days of sailing and had "The great light wind regatta of 2013". Below are a few pictures if interested.

Good pictures.
My son and his buddy had my Sunfish out last weekend in 20-25mph winds and had a great time. Heeling, tipping over, jumping wakes, diving through waves...as much fun as you could have with a PWC without the gas bill. 8)
