Around Block Island Race cancelled due to heavy winds, so we went out sailing for fun/practice. Upwind J3 peel to J4 then to storm jib (straight to single reef in main). We were cruising and was finding the groove well @ helm. Downwind we flew A4 spin and broke the boats speed record at 10.7 kts! Lost the backstay and then the spin and put storm trysail up before it started to rain and we dropped sails and motored in
