We worked offshore shortly after passing Ensenada last evening and caught a nice breeze all night with the code zero. At dawn, we set the 2S spinnaker and have been making 8-12 kts. all day towards Cedros island. At sunset, the wind is 22-24 kts. out of the NW. We downshifted to the 4S spinnaker and have a reef in the main. Still averaging 9 kts of boat speed. Brian is having an interesting time cooking dinner as we roll around and shoot off waves. Spirits are good today. Still haven't found the beer.

Sounds like fun. Nothing like surfing a 40 ft sail boat. Go get it. Jimmy
ReplyDeleteYou're really zipping along. Maybe it's a good thing that case of beer didn't make it aboard. You might not be going that fast if you were carrying the extra weight.
