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.
What do you think? 🐟 or 🦈? We don’t know. The fishing line unfortunately (or luckily? if it was a shark) broke before we got the fish on board 🥲 always tragic to loose a lure, because it means we harmed a fish “for no reason”. Hopefully the next days will be more successful 🎣 the Humboldt stream we sail along should be full of fish 🤞 🗺️ sailed: 220 nm 🌎 to destination: 1.980 nm 🌬️ avg. on day: 6 kts ⛵️ avg. on day: 4,1 kts Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Zambezi ps: in our link in bio you can find the Ocean Crossing Bundle which includes everything you need to know for offshore sailing ⛵️ #offshoresailing #sailing #catamaran #sailinglife #sailingadventure #oceansailing
