Obviously by sailing. Otherwise very many ships would still be drifting in the oceans since centuries.

So we are good sailors and started sailing at 1000. We did not achieve a speed record, but move on with around 3 KN in a wind of 4 – 6 KN AWS.

Unfortunately, a squall at PRT and one on STB forced us to get the gennaker down. A squall can bring winds of above 30 KN along. The gennaker’s limit is 15 KN. Thus, it’s better to get the huge gennaker down in time.

At the end we simply used the genoa and used the strong wind of the squall from PRT to move on.

But after the squall, the wind dies pretty quickly. So we drifted for a while with all sails down waiting eagerly for the wind to come back.

And then the air was filled with the scent of fresh wind. Gosh, this smells so good. The sea changed from a glassy surface to one with ripples, and they increases in height and became wavelets. And we hoisted the gennaker again.

Now we are heading a bit E of S to get a better position in the wind corridor.

Where will we be tonight?
