aardvarkash10 1,072 Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 Sat out Saturday given the forecast, and left Clevedon for Bryant Bay midday Sunday. A crash gybe at the southern end of Ponui pulled the starboard traveller control block clean out of the deck, but apart from that a fun sail, and a pleasant night parked under the cliffs at Bryant Bay. Monday we jerry-rigged the traveller control block and exited north into the stiffening norwester. Two reefs in the main and 60% of the headsail out we still saw 7.5 knots towing our 12 foot Ali dinghy. Came home down the Waiheke channel then bashed through a 1m chop across to the Wairoa. Again, no speed problems and the occasional "windows under" as the mainsheet trimmer missed his timing. Mea culpa. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
