Bolero Sailing into Fisherman's Bay

Post by Bluenose »

A brother of a friend took a short video of Bolero sailing back into Fisherman's Bay on Lopez Island last summer.

Apparently there may be some additional footage and Skip will be up on Lopez for a sail and DVD exchange in a few weeks. I will post more eye candy if he has some.

As a side note we sailed in with our first reef tucked in as it was blowing pretty good outside and usually kicks up at our mooring. It was fun to see the sail shape of our newish reefing idea. Looks pretty good to me and I have a few refinements to add this year.

Cheers,
Bill

She looks SO much bigger than 30'. Must be the depth of cockpit.
