Day 6 RYA Competent Crew

Mark Stevens

Good wind in the morning coming out of Syvota, took it in turns tacking until we hit the channel, wind dropped slightly tacking half way down the channel, stopped for lunch mooring onto a sandy patch. After lunch motoring and took it in turns to do a man overboard drill. Motoring 3-4 boat lengths directly downwind, neutral, tight turn motor up very slowly into the wind picking up Dan on the starboard side. Every one did this 1st time. Into the channel at Vilho we took turns reversing practice, into the wind, across and then downwind before anchoring and testing the hold. Back to HQ, we all passed! Clean the boat, last meal with the crew and packing up the boat. Loved spending time with everyone, will miss them !
