A testing day…

Wednesday managed to get through video covid testing for 12 crew, then boat registration, and finally immigration for Bermuda. It has to be said that the three Bermuda immigration officials were a credit to Bermuda – friendly, cheerful, and efficient. They’re dealing with almost 2000 sailors who aren’t the best at remembering their passport, following process, or being as polite as they could be. Anyway a very successful morning, so in the afternoon with a little breeze in the channel, we got through some more data gathering for various sail combinations. Here we are reefing our big J0 foresail, a furling jib like masthead sail flown from the sprit – a weapon! A grand day out…
