Fiona Cohen

Super smooth sailing

There were scattered storms during this trip, during which there were strong gusts. Once the rain died down, there was very little wind. We did more MOB drills, practiced picking up mooring balls, and did some docking practice at Second Star Sailing.

We checked out English Harbor before going out to do some MOB drills. There were decent swells during this trip. At the end of the night, we sailed onto the anchor.

Turned off SailTies by accident for a big portion of this trip. We practiced a lot of tacking throughout. Deirdre also practiced blown-on docking in Falmouth.

We left Deep Bay Bay late in the day when the sun way already starting to set. The primary goal of this trip was for Deirdre to practice navigating. Fiona steered for most of the sail. We tacked a few times and practiced two jibes. By the time we got into Jolly Harbor the sun had fully set and Fiona was steering in the dark.
