This video illustrates the force of the wind while on a close hauled/close reach with one reef in the main and 2/3 of the Genoa out in 17 knots of wind with 23 knot gusts. Our speed over ground last week ranged from a comfortable 6.5 knots to 12.5 knots. As you may know, the Lagoon 450 is well known for its capability to sail in low wind and down wind. We also realized the 450's ability to provide a controlled and comfortable “banging up wind” experience during our 21 day trip around the BVIs.

Deb and I made Granola to keep on hand for snacking. It was a great way to make something that is all natural and not horrible for us. When a little snack craving comes over us and handful of this does the trick. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "How to repair a wooden mast, boom, spar or Bulkhead (Step by Step) " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Nxr-yxUjvQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

We've left Grenada! The map in the video shows us where we are at the time of this post. My message for today is that if you're new to cruising, make sure to experience a night sail with an experienced sailor as a part of your required training. Even if you don't plan on sailing at night, you might find yourself in a position where you must do it. Once you try it out, you'll find it peaceful. My wife, Kim, prefers sailing at night as it's so quiet and magical. She loves the carpet of stars above and the fresh sound of waves parting along the hull. Join me on a Sailing Lifestyle Experience to see, feel, smell, touch, and taste the sailing life. Once you try it out, you'll be hooked! #sailinglife #sailinglifestyle #sailingexperience #learntosail #short
