sv Hull Yeah!

Sailed mostly on the new Code 0, wind died 15m from dear, motored a bit, wind, then 13kts. Had to quickly douse the Code 0 for the Jib. Awesome day, very impressed with the Code 0, to do ~-1st of AWS

A wild ride. Blew the starboard jib sheet before entering Santorini’s crater. Exiting was 25kta of wind and 2m swells. Ditched into this bay after hitting 42kts of True wind. Main was at Reef 2, jib a small storm triangle and still kept up 5-7kts. Whoosh, that was a great test.

A long day, with the excitement of joining a race of monohulls that were on their way to Nysiros. We passed many at overall speed, crossing paths as we couldn’t point as wel, with optimum VMG. We did a lot of reefing and reefing out as the winds built and we learned where to pull in the reef lines so we could pull in the main sheet, without hitting the coach roof with the boom.
