What a ride!
The front came throiugh just after 8:00 PM last night and we’ve been seeing steady 40 Kt winds with 50’s not too uncommon. It’s been really uncomfortable and wet. We’re all fine and Double Wide has performed beautifully – I’ll provide more detail later. Our fastest recorded speed surfing down a wave thus far has been 18.2 Kts. That was with doiuble reefed main and the jib. We’re now sailing under jib alone — much less scary!
More detail when the weather is better…
