Anettine - A good time at sea!



We have a fantastic time at sea so far. We had dolphins visiting us in the afternoon. Not seldom, but one of them showed off just beside the boat and made 3 high jumps while spinning at very high speed. Beautiful!

After a night with good speed, sailing with the main and genua 1 most of the night, except for half an hour when we were sailing with 2 reefs in both sails. In the morning we changed to genaker just after breakfast. It stayed up all day and we made good average speed until the wind dropped to less than a knot. We decided to go with the engine a while to save the sails from being damage due to the rolling without wind. Even with motoring, we still think we are reasonable well positioned in the fleet as we noticed several others doing the same. Time will show.
