Only Rob, Thatcher and Mark but a great afternoon’s sail.
It started out with no wind at all but we were clearly on the Southern edge of a little storm. Within a few minutes of hoisting the main we had to put a reef in and only unrolled half the genoa but still flew across to the other side of the lake, avoiding going North into the storm.
Once the wind eased a bit we practised our man overboard manoeuvre, including a “heave to” approach demonstrated by Rob.
Then genny fully out, shook out the reef and a calm sail and motor home.
Just avoided getting boarded by the local pirates
