Today was our first sail out on the sea. How do you call those watery things? Waves? Damn. Forecasts for this weekend were different on every site. Some predicted force 3 other up to force 6. Well it turned out to be a force 4 rapidly going towards 5.
We had a very nice hour of sailing to get used to the rougher sea conditions again. Only one sparring partner out there, our Blade in one-up mode.
Back on the beach we decided not to go out again in the afternoon and did some fine tuning of the lines on board.
I must say the Falcon comes well equipped and had a clean tramp to start. But I thought it could be even more tidy :-)
We've been spending 2 hours tying bungees, undoing them, cutting them too small, re-doing them,... Finally all the bungees are there. Right length and right size as that is equally important!
I hope we'll be able to have another sail tomorrow to test it all out!
How many meters? I'm guessing 18...
