August 5th - Taking a few friends out

In the evening on Thursday the 5th we invited a bunch of friends out for a sail. Given the short notice only two were able to join. We managed to get out of our berth around 18:30 and were back at 18. Given that this was the first sail with friends, we brought Champaign and sandwiches.

 

The wind had been from the south-east over night and during the day, so there were a bit of waves coming in all the way from Poland. A bit choppy, but people were happy nonetheless.

It was getting dark when we finally managed to back in at ten and I managed to bump the bow into the pier slightly. I'm not sure whether it left a mark in the boat or whether there already was one. There are a lot to learn when managing a 6 ton vessel.

Total Sailed distance: 48.8nm, sailed this day: 12nm.
