I have finally managed to get on the water sailing this spring(?).
The weather has been grim (but I suspect you knew that), however, last Sunday (8th April) the forecast proved correct. It was dry, intermittently sunny and a steady gentle F1 westerly.
Full sail plan all-day, Full mainsail, staysail and yankee. 15 Nm covered at an average of 3.0 Kts and a max. of 5.1 Kts. Towed my tender all day as well.
Most enjoyable, it is good to be back on the water.
Here is the evidence:
