Day 3

Trip dates: 
Sunday, March 7, 2021
Trip length: 
1 day
Type of watercraft: 
Sail
  • The figure 8 reef.

I was very optimistic about spending day 3 on the water.  It was still pretty chilly with temperatures in the 40’s but the winds were much gentler than the day before.  I motored out to raise the sail and guess what?  I inadvertently reefed my sail with a newly discovered figure 8 reef.  I sheepishly motored back to my dock, put Bente back on the lift, and removed the twists from the sail.  Went back to the house, enjoyed a Mt Gay and had a good chuckle.
