    It is always nice when the boat is sailing well on her favourite point of sail 👍

    Rule 1 - The sea stays on the outside of the boat!
    Lovely shots of near perfect sailing conditions. Can't wait for the summer and back on the water.

    Cracking video. Have to agree that Esper did look great trucking along ing full sail.

  • @fairweathersailor
    @fairweathersailor 4 місяці тому +1

    You might want to put a spare bit of hose on that thruhull if you have it. Run the end up well above the waterline in the back of a cabinet if you can or better yet put a valve or plug in the end. Best not to risk a leaky thruhull when you are so far from land. Fair Winds!

      That's a solid yet simple tip. Thank you 🙏

    49th subscriber LIKE; 238th tag-along view. Indeed, seeing Esper bompin' along under full sail it one of the best parts; of course all the great vistas you capture on camera and video that me/us see parts of the global our own eyes won't see up closely. Thanks and cheers for sharing all of that.

    Jamie, I'm glad you've overcome your youthful ingornance to leap before you look.
    What a beautiful sail. You've always got to be on your guard on the water in a boat. Otherwise, well, you know. Thanks for sharing.

    Great seeing the flying foxes -- they are to be found in Sri Lanka as well. I hope your mechanical problems are fixed soon. Best regards.

      There's quite a bit of work ahead on those problems... all coming up over the next few weeks! Yes, the very first time I saw the flying foxes was in another life, 40 years ago in Sri Lanka! We've seen a lot of them, particularly in India. Cheers! Liz 🙏
