As the wind and waves increased it is a wet ride for the jib trimmer down to leeward on our Mumm 36 racing yacht. As the spray pounds into his face it is all eyes on the leach of the sail, making minor lots of adjustments to allow the skipper to carve through the waves while keeping the speed on. The Mumm 36 loved the breeze and when she was setup correctly with lots of mast bend in the breeze she could power through most conditions without having to put a reef in the main. Continual minor trim adjustments where needed to keep the boat in the groove and make life easy for the skipper need to be in in tune with the changes to sail the boat fast. The team at bottom up boats loved the Mumm and the fun we had while racing her as hard as we could on strangford lough and beyond.

The weatherman played a trick on us. Yesterday's forecast of clear skies for this evening's trip never materialized. Instead, grey skies blew in on the southeast wind. But no matter! We sailed out close-haul past the Shagwong buoy then enjoyed the long downhill slide back to Culloden Point and around into Fort Pond Bay.

A questionable overlap at the leeward mark leads to a protest between two Viper 640s, Live Wire and Patched Up, on Sunday at the Marblehead NOOD.
