The new sail has arrived!

After the mission to Quito, the new asymetrical spinnaker has arrived and we took it out for a test run yesterda afternoon. Superb sail, beautifully rigged, easy enough to use and is great for getting us trucking on in light winds.

I though I had to send a couple of pictures of the new sail against the sunset in Salinas.

Wish you were here!

Love that sail!
Wow, it's really beautiful,I bet she rockets along with that one hoisted. You must be having an absolute ball and I bet you're basting nicely too, I am soooo envious. Not that I'd give up St Eds to be there (yeah right....) Love, mum.
