It was very windy at Marchwood Yacht Club on Tuesday afternoon. So windy I had to get the storm sails up. Couldn't bring myself to leave the pontoon though! :-)
Trysail track works a treat but the new sail is so stiff I cant crush it down small enough to justify keeping it stowed on the coach roof. Looks like it might have to live in its bag down below after all. That will mean even less room for me.
Hope all your prep work is going well and good luck to the guys just about to sail across on Rubicon!
Cheers
Will

Will, All looking very
Will,
All looking very smart. I think we all have to get used to the strage looks we get from "normal" folk when we get these sails out.
Glad your preparations are going well. See you in Plymouth soon.

Just as well really Will,
Just as well really Will, you wouldn't want it washed off the deck just when you needed it.
Try the tri sheeted to the boom as well. Remember, in the event of major damage to your main you might end up using in regular breezes. Is the track long enough?
