Description
Freezing cold conditions.
Daysails, nightsails, weekend sails. Bitter gales, flat calms and fog.
I don't mind snow but no rain & no swimming.
Sailing from Hamble.
You're welcome to hop on a 43ft steel long-keel ketch and help sea trials to prep for longer voyages.
Practicing and developing calm no-faff techniques for short handed and solo:
MOB return and recovery. Marina close quarters. Mooring and anchoring under sail and power.
Headsail changes. Spinnakers and pole-ing Genoa's, Ketch sail trim.
Lighting the wood burning stove.
Learning to stay warm, dry and enjoying an empty Solent at a beautiful time of year.
