10-15 knots, calm seas, overcast Great sail out to the Winchelseas and back with a stop at the eco barge on the way home. Sailed with one reef and a bit of the Genoa furled in, great balance and made over 6 knots for quite a while

Overcast, 10-12 knots, light seas. Out and around snake island, make good speed while reefed. Had Denise and her friend Laurene out for a fall sail.

Beautiful sunny day, wind ~5 knots most of the day, became ~10 knots near the end of our sail. Calm seas. Motored through Kornati National Park and admired the bald islands before raising the sails and making for Tribunj. Made 2-3 knots most of the time under sail, picked up to 7 knots near the end. The Catamaran was very easy to handle singlehanded in these conditions, I did have the help of an auto-helm and electric winch. And yes, I did do some steering with my feet, very chill vibes.

Sunny, ~5 kts, became 10-15 later on. Made good speed under sail, made a few tacks but had to use the engine to get to our destination upwind. Seas became moderately heavy near the end. Stopped just outside of Zlarin for a swim, snorkel and lunch. Then we made our way up to Smokvica

Overcast, light wind. Motored down the river from Skradin and stopped in Šibenik for a walk around. Saw a turtle jump off of a rock. Continued on to Zlarin where we stayed in the marina, visited the red coral museum and ate pizza

Quick cruise up the river from Tribunj to Skradin. Had to motor up the river. Sunny, 10-15 kts of wind, moderate seas. The river was full of oyster and fish farms

Wind 5-10 SW, calm seas. Sunny and hot but sunset came quick after we got out. Out and around Five Finger Island and did a COB drill on the way home with a fender. We could use some more practice on that. SW needs a new COB pole, the top is broken off.

10-15 knots, moderate seas. Sunny until it went behind the mountains, sunset is getting too early. Reefed and un-reefed the main, it was quite gusty. First sail out on Mabuhay since the boat was re-wired. Everything went smoothly.

15-20 knots of wind, heavy sea state, sunny and warm. Sailed out and around Entrance Island. Had an altercation with a fishing boat before heading into Pilot Bay for lunch. BBQ lunch and a swim. Headed back to Nanaimo and saw an orca while dodging the ferries. Needed to spill a lot of wind to keep the boat comfortable, we should rig up a second reefing line.

Thursday night sail out and around Snake Island. Had just enough wind to make it before sunset 5-10 knots, calm seas and overcast. Enough ferry wake to make it interesting. A couple of good tacks and a gybe with a new crew member
