⛱News Express⛱ Le bout de quai était intenable. Ressac de plus en plus fort . On a pas dormi. Comme convenu, les pêcheurs sont partis à 3h du mat' (super discret, des mecs vraiment bien élevés). Nous, on a tenu une heure de plus puis on a dégagé vite fait avant que ça tourne mal. Méthode pour enlever les amarres quand le ressac est puissant : 1) démarrer le moteur et attendre que le voilier soit rappelé vers le quai 2) compter 1.2.3 et bondir ensemble sur le quai 3) aller chacune à son amarre, l'une devant et l'autre derrière 4) compter la série (comme avec une planche de surf quand c'est gros et qu'il faut passer la barre) et à la dernière vague, juste quand le voilier est rappelé au quai, profiter de l'instant de calme : 5) défaire nos amarres, bien synchro et vite fait 6) balancer tout dans le voilier puis courir et sauter sur le pont 7) passer la vitesse, mettre les gaz et se déhaler de ce maudit quai ... à nous le large, 4h du mat', nuit noire comme de l'encre, vent soutenu mais pas méchant, direction Pico ! En cours de route, quand le jour se levait, nous avons croisé de beaux dauphins qui faisaient des bonds au-dessus de l'eau, des vrilles dans tous les sens. Pas de films, pas de photos parce que ça bougeait et Fabienne a perdu sa GoPro par 1000 mètres de fond 😥 Là, nous sommes arrivées au Paradis ... alors, on en profite un peu 😀

A staysail is a type of sail that is typically smaller than the main sail on a boat, and is attached to a stay (a wire or rope) that connects to the mast of the vessel. It can be used in a variety of wind conditions, but is particularly useful in stronger winds, when the larger main sail may be difficult to handle. In our case we’re using it because our furler is broken and we can’t use the headsail. Staysails are often used for upwind sailing, and can help to balance the boat by reducing the amount of weather helm (the tendency of the boat to turn into the wind). They can also be used in conjunction with a larger headsail or spinnaker to help control the boat’s speed and direction in varying wind conditions. Staysails are commonly found on sailing yachts and other sailing vessels, and can be made from a variety of materials, including Dacron, Kevlar, and other synthetic fibers. #staysail #sailboat #sailinglife
