Today it happened at MaRe.<\/p>\n
MaRe ran with 6 – 8 KN through the water. The Big Blue pulled her at an AWA of 78 deg STB since hours. From early morning until about 1400. Then suddenly a strange nose came from the gennaker. At about 1\/3 from top the fabric was torn horizontally.<\/p>\n
The wind was in the range of about 12 – 13 KN, and 15 KN is my own safety limit.<\/p>\n
We dowsed it immediately. It was a bit tricky with the horizontally splitted sail but Joe steered MaRe well by my command.<\/p>\n
I hope I find a sail maker in Fiji who can fix my beloved Big Blue.<\/p>\n
Beside this we are lucky with wind. Since about 1400 we should be in very low to no wind area. Still we have TWS of 10 KN from TWD of 80 – 90 deg. A nice sailing wind and MaRe 6 – 7 KN STW. Not bad.<\/p>\n
The wind turbine makes almost all the electrical power we need on board right now. Not bad at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
