Giorno 73 - salutiamo i nostri amici. Questa settimana sono venuti a trovarci Elena e Max, due cari amici di Trento, che vivono a Viareggio e lavorano a bordo di una barca. Il programma era ben definito: Siviglia, Granada, Gibilterra e Vejer. Macchina presa, fotocamera carica, zainetto pronto. E invece. Contro ogni previsione Max si ammala. 38,2 di febbre. Da uomo, non posso che provare solidarietà. Oltre i 37,4 è durissima! Scherzi a parte, per fortuna di giorno in giorno è andata meglio, al punto che oggi sono tornati a casa quasi di nuovo in forze. Non avremo visto nè Siviglia nè Granada nè Vejer, ma le risate, le parole, i confronti e il “buon sangue”, come dicono i nonni, hanno reso questi giorni insieme ricchi di momenti sereni. Tutti e 4 andiamo per mare eppure questa è la prima volta che ci troviamo sulla stessa barca tutti insieme. Peccato fossimo ormeggiati e in fase di lavori, ma sicuramente ricombineremo in acque più limpide, a climi più miti e paesaggi più variegati del solo interno di Julia. Due ragazzi preziosi che fanno bene al cuore. Nella speranza di rivedersi presto e in movimento, come al solito sento un po’ di nostalgia. Ma ormai mi conoscete, i saluti sono il mio punto debole. E così, anche oggi, sono toccati i saluti. Ma finché lasciano un po’ di amaro in bocca, vanno bene così. Vuol dire che c’è la voglia di rivedersi e di riviversi. Alla prossima ragazzi! Vi vogliamo bene Andrea @maxgiordani @elena.rochel #saillife⛵️ #saillife #vivereinbarcaavela #vitainbarcaavela #diariodibordo

The Bottom Up Crew were a little rusty in there first major racing weekend, with the breeze up and the co-ordination between the crew members slightly off they put there J109 on it side in back to back gybes. The video footage always help with the debrief which enable us to correct our mistakes getting on on point for the rest of the weekend. The less than perfect gybes show how forgiving the J109 is even when the breeze is up. After the broach letting both the sheet and kicker go and putting the wheel hard to leeward is all that you need to get the boat off its ear and heading back in the right direction. The major mistake with both of the gybes was the time it took to get the main sheet across. The delay in getting the main across caused the spinnaker to set too early on the new gybe, without the main creating a wind shadow over it there was too much power in the kit which started the broach up, which was made ever worse once the main flipped across. The second change which may have avoid the broach would have been to quickly ease the new sheet 4 or 5 feet the second the spinnaker filled on the new side, this is the next best thing to reduce the power as the kite sets on the new gybe. The redline racing team dusted themselves off and pushed hard enough across the weekend to end with a 3, 2 and a 1 which was enough the take the overall victory in the annual Strangford Lough Narrows regatta. We hope you got some value out of these back to back gybes, learning what not to do.
