We’ve past the worst portion of this gulf and are now sailing with the wind just aft of the beam in 20 knots.
We saw 31 knots for a bit, but all and all a pretty easy evening.
Only 4 miles off the beach, sailing in 30 knots on a beam reach is something like ice skating laps at full speed in a rink that’s just been zambonni’d (nice word) with the lights off.
Smooth, fast sailing, its just tough to know where the edges are.
Pretty cool!
