Rain Check! Monsoon Season Sailing for Dummies 🤪

One of the questions we’re often asked is: “what’s the worst weather you’ve sailed in?”

This wasn’t the worst (by far), but it was definitely some of the wettest.

The passage this video features was also made more challenging by the fact that our destination was into the wind, and we were racing the clock to arrive before the weather worsened (which hardly seemed possible at the time!)

This is the first time we've shown our hanked-on staysail in a video.

As with all our other canvas, the staysail is made by Ullman Sails Whitsunday (https://whitsunday.ullmansails.com) - no affiliation, but we have always enjoyed good service and products and are therefore happy to recommend them.

There’s also a bit of a lesson in stainless steel corrosion (yes, even this miracle material is not ever-lasting in the harsh saltwater environment).

Welcome along for the ride ⛵️
