Philocat Ena - is blue the right color?



Sven and Franziska invested a full day's work to fix the blue kite and we
could hoist it shortly before sunset. Everything was perfect, ship in fast
motion. But winds increased considerably. 12, 15, 17, 18 kts - even 20 - how
strong is the tape? We decided not to take any chances and took it down in
wind and rain and darkness - journey never short of adventure. After three
minutes the wind stopped completely. Thus up again, blue is the colour of
the night - you wish! Soaked with rain water the sail was down again before
counting to ten.

So no kite sailing for us anymore and 800nm to go.

Attached all the destroyed sail garbage ...
