Coming back from a weekend in Galveston we were only 3 or 4 miles from home port. Entering Galveston Bay we saw this storm approaching. Sailing with just the jib we hoped we could out run it but decided it was better to be out in the open water when it hits so we just rolled in the jib and when it hit turned away from it. No waves to speak of so decided to keep the rain out of our faces. We put the dog down below and waited for it to hit. It hit with 36 knot winds but they died down to the high 20s. The squall only lasted 10 minutes or so and when it passed we headed home. It was our first experience of a storm although not at sea as such so this was a baby storm. The first of many to come in our sailing lives I'm sure.

Owning a yacht no longer has to mean full capital exposure or operational complexity. Co-ownership offers a structured way to access yacht ownership: * Shared purchase and running costs * Guaranteed usage periods each year * Professionally managed operations * Asset-backed ownership with long-term value A smarter approach for modern owners who want the benefits of ownership without the traditional burden. #yachtsourcing
