South Atlantic Summary:
WE CAME THIRD IN OUR CLASS
- The Farr 38 was a great boat for this event.
- The only damages we sustained were: The binnacle and an electrical problem with the Galley light and minor chafe on the spreader points on the main.. Other then this everything went perfectly.
- A crew of three was ideal. Shifts were well balanced and it help control boredom.
- We had more then enough food and water.
- Crew choice is important: We had the right crew. We were probably the happiest crew together after this event.
- Good boat preparation pays off.(did for us)
- More books to read would be good.
- Will we be back??? Hopefully yes. The main concern is getting the boat back and the related costs, so we will have to see.
- Would we sail together as a team??? Without doubt.
- Would we do it on a Farr 38 again??? Without doubt. Reliable and a pleasure to sail.
SAILING IS FUN
