What a beautiful day to start a yacht race (well rally) 😀
We started the rally well, then enjoyed a bottle of champagne together on the bow of the boat while rounding the last mark until Bali!
The day took a bit of a backward step (literally) when we hoisted the new top down spinnaker only to discover that it wasn't going to unfurl properly - oh well, after moving back in the fleet we gave up on that and went back to the main and overlapping headsail - much better and now sailing quite nicely at around 6 knots.
