Heading in to the light air season
Sunday, October 22nd, 2006Nice sailing today in light winds with Cindy and Ed. We motored out and put up the sails… and bobbed along without much doing. So we had lunch and then swapped out the 100% jib for the 150% genoa. We found a little wind and the big headsail got us moving for awhile. Then it died out again and we found ourselves sailing but not moving much against the ebb. So we headed in under power. It was a relatively short sailing day, buy very pleasant. Winter time is definitely around the corner as the wind is moderating and starting to change direction. I left the 150% ready for use next time, since I expect more of the same.
