Light enough to row when all else fails! Very light winds off southern Ireland during the 2018 Round Britain & Ireland meant that while some of the boats were complaining about being overtaken by ducks, others, on board Dazcat 1495 Hissy Fit had made preparations for just this eventuality. The potential problem is that the light winds continue and they still have 1600 miles to g! Just how long can they keep up rowing this 15m x 8m cat?

Well I got the body fill as done as it is going to be, be warned if you don't have a popper shop and you are doing this in the garage, wait till summer. The body fill was a pain in the butt, lot of sanding, did not have the patients to fill all the holes that magically appeared. Just hope the paint I am using fill cover them, also I think there are primers that would fill these holes as well. I have put the first coat of rubberized paint on, nice and rubbery.

he winds at the start of our 300nm passage to Corsica across the Tyrrhenian Sea in May this year were so light that as we drifted along under the big pink (our asymmetrical spinnaker) our thoughts turned to pasta and in particular the merits of macaretti and who had the lips to deal with such pasta. #boatlife #sailing #sailinglife #medsailing #bluewatersailboat #liveaboardsailboat #sailaroundtheworld #lifeonaboat #followintrepidbear #pasta #lightwind
