Setting Sail For The First Time On Our New Boat! | Ep 17

So we go out and sail our boat for the first time. Yes it was only the head sail, but we did it! In very low wind of 2 knots, we got up to 1 knot of speed. We did get 3.5 knots with some gust, but they are so hard to catch on camera.

We then go back to fixing things, like our winch that didn’t work on our first sail. I can say that this sailboat right now is 5% fun, 95% fixing crap that ain’t working right. This is just the beginning of our repairs, the hard is in our near future.
