Screamin' beam reach-6.2 kts in the Typhoon!

Post by Mike Wainfeld »

The Northeast has had 3 straight days of 20+ Kt NW wind, and on my little pond that lays the water down nice and smooth. About 45 degrees, so we had to dress warm, wool hat and gloves, but a real fun sail.

Mike - Sounds like a great sail! That's the best kind of weather. The wind's screaming, the air is cool and the sun is shining. Having enjoyed a few days already this Fall like that out on the Atlantic, I fully understand your passion and excitement. Impressive little boat, eh?
