July 31, 2011 15.6 Miles, 3:04 Hours Quick sail on a beautiful sunny afternoon. Achieved hull speed close hauled with lots of wind. Used the traveller to reduce the heel, while keeping the speed of the boat up. On the way back I was moving fast enough that I didn't have to put the spinnaker up to make it back.
