Off on an expedition to town 5 mi away on a broad reach. The wind had come up a bit, so a good chance to check out reefed sails. No problem. With five aboard (including grandson), we skimmed right along in comfort. Just started, so still getting the rudder down.
A little video from the trip. We move smartly in this boat, reef or no. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipN9kJSIEtS_h4rGfV1WmQlTSxXwDrTFbOMNRtRZF-GdR4YiTPE0AA1cL0aD_vgggQ/photo/AF1QipONK9QdZt6QvH-OA_1ogSeBgQY5XIasv5GPd3ru?key=YXM1Uzk4TE95S2EwcGR1SFNUdTc0anQySHNKWVRn
I could have shaken out the reefs by now as the wind came down, but the boat was still moving so nicely, why bother?
