Weather Forecast

The sailing,

There were broad reaches, beam reaches, beats to windward, running, slogging against wind and tide.  We had everything from clams to gusts of force 9, we had gales on the nose, near gales on the quarter, we even saw the sun and it only rained on us once!

 

Easy going

Smile or gritted teeth?

Gritted teeth!

Hard life

Has he got a mainsail?

Hmmm...

Going down

Leaving station

Light weight

More off watch

Not all storms

Nothing is going to stop us now

Of course I can steer

Speed or comfort?

Sunset

We are gaining

We are winning

We can fly!

Well deserved rest.
