The weather forecast of 3, gusting to 20 was very accurate. It felt like we experienced everything a boat would in an offshore race in the span of 2 hours. Confusing breeze, sideways rain with lightning and thunder, becalmed about to throw the anchor out to prevent moving backwards in the current when the breeze died and a 180 degree windshift to sail two legs, out and back, both upwind... We sang songs, we made up lyrics, we laughed and had a ball.
