Fantastic conditions all day. Westerly winds with a little south westerly. We event got to fly the spinnaker, what a privilege to be part of the crew.

Great conditions, tacked upwind before a beautiful downwind sail with the Asymmetric spinnaker. I was on trimming the Genoa and Spinnaker. A worrying moment when we lost 80% of steerage but dismantling the auto helm temporarily resolved the issue.

First day of training, spent the morning on the dock running scenarios due to fog. Then a great afternoon sailing in 20knots of wind, got the asymmetric spinnaker up and hit 8knots of boat speed.
