We arrived just as Al was packing up to go to work. I suppose he must work
sometimes!!!
Ajdesq was out as well and came over to say hello.
On Al's advice I went out on a 5.0 and Sarah on a 4.0 (we need another sail
in the middle of that range)
The sea was choppy and I was blasting quite easily, but it soon started to
drop.
I came in to change up, I gave Sarah the 5.0 and took out my 5.7. That made
all the difference. Ajdesq had already changed up and he told Sarah that he
couldn't face rigging a third sail.
We went back out for about an hour, until the wind dropped again, so I gave
Sarah the 5.7 and started to pack up the 5.0.
Sarah had a couple of good reaches but soon got overpowered, so she ran in
and told me to get her the 5.0 again. So I went out on the 5.7 again.
We sailed until all the sandbanks were out, with the wind direction we were
sailing up and down the Leri river. The sea state flatened, so we were
making better attempts at gybing, made some dry ones but still not quite
there.
It was a good day, hope it stays like this for the weekend.
