Hey everyone, due to the craziness of prepping for crossing the Panama Canal and because I did not meet anyone that could deliver data to Germany, the upcoming episodes have been delayed a little. The new material is on its way now, and I hope we can be back on track soon. Sorry if anyone was worried. i thought u had seen my update about crossing the canal and knew that all was good. Ahoy, Nike & Karl

The first week of the season ending frosties regatta a strangford lough yacht club got of the a lively start with 15 to 25 knots keeping the sailor busy. J109 Going to Red was blasting across the bottom reach when the out core of the tack line broke. The dynemma core shot forward with the tack line rising about 6 meters before the core locked in tight in the clutch. The team kept calm and kept the kite flying while they dropped the jib before cutting the rope to drop the kit. Another example why you always need a sharp knife handy while racing to ensure that you can get out of any trouble where ropes get locked in and will not run. The crew did a great job of staying calm before racing on to victory in race 1.

Tessie will soon appear in the online sail simulator game Sailaway III! I’ve tried it, and the details of both the boat and sail wise is mind blowing 🙌
