Winter Sail - A delightful activity

Post by Mark »

All

Yesterday I took Aminee for a dip. For sure the water was 14C but the day was pleasant and local air temps about 20C. Here is a small video as we got the 11.30am breeze (6-7 kts) which had just set, it was an ENE but played with us a bit during the day.

This vid sequence I filmed standing in the cabin. Aminee sailed herself for almost an hour on this tack (heading 090).

My friend and sailing companion is having a great time in his wonderful craft. Enjoy, we did.

BTW morning winds were about 6-8 kts and afternoon winds 15kts + mainly from the E/SE/NE/ take your pick.
