More Sail!

On our journey from Beaufort, NC to Norfolk, VA we finally had an opportunity to try our downwind sails. You will recall that we tried this in the middle of the Atlantic at 3am with no success (we ripped the sail from top to bottom). We realized that the winds were perfect to try again, both in direction and velocity. So off we went. With great success. It was truly amazing. This photo shows Chis dwarfed by the size of the two headsails dragging us downwind. It was beautiful!
