The fast & famous One Tonner Racing Sloop by Chuck Burns
Instead of sailing I would call this years activity „life on board“. And at the very end of our holidays we even had the opportunity to take a refreshing bath and use the Baltic Sea as our private swimming pool – despite the rough weather we experienced way too often. What a great finish! 🙂
Despite the Corona pandemic sailing holidays were on the agenda. Yeah! If you avoid crowded habors where can you be safer than on-board your sailboat…?
2017 – Running Conditions at the Darss, Baltic Sea, Germany
The video shows our blustery force 6 cruise from Warnemünde heading East. Wind directions shifted quickly, especially when gusts fell in. Although working fine under these conditions we decided to disengage the MONITOR ervery now and then to avoid a zig-zag-course and to minimize the risk of gybing. More info & pix about our sailing season 2017 you’ll find here.
If you take a careful look to the tiller you’ll recognize only minimum motions / corrections – a good indicator that the ship is well-balanced at this moment.
