Nexus - Sailing again in variable winds



Winds have been up and down, from nothing to 20kts today, we're happy to be sailing, but we've been switching between Asymmetric and the white sails which is work. We were just bobbing along trying to keep the Asymmetric up at 3kts an hour ago, now we have 20kts and we're not able to head to course so we're sailing fast a bit closer to the coast. We'll probably take it down again and switch if the wind doesn't shift back in an hour or so. We've seen a lot of seaweed in the water, which fouls the fishing lines so we've stopped fishing for the moment. At any rate, we're happy to be sailing and to have the boat quiet all day!
