Gale Warnings


Gale warnings from Herb to "Sedna". They continue due East; the strong winds are North of them. And so are we! So we head South-East. Shame to lose our hard earned Northern latitude and drop down from 38 to 37 degrees. The alternative being a bumpy ride in 30-35kn wind, gusting 10 more. So with a double reef and a tiny triangle of foresail we hightail it down South.

While enjoying left-over "17th of May" cake, on Dad's 82nd Birthday!
