hull speed, schmull speed...
12-15kts blowing and we defied her theoretical hull speed. (know it's been done before by all of you, but not yet by me)
Our return to port is dictated by nap time, so after a couple of hours, we were done. That's what all old salty captains over the ages have done, no? Children's dramamine kept my daughter from barfing this time at least. That is a nice improvement on the sailing experience for all.
Inclinometer doesn't work, but she heels nonetheless.:D (Ritchie said that it would be about $50 bucks and a couple weeks to put the gimball back on its pivot point.)
Anyone know what (if any) is her optimum heel for greatest hull speed? I know that 0* is the optimum heel in my lovely wife's opinion.
