Trying a spinnaker

Elise went out yesterday as we needed to try one of her new spinnakers, part of the sail inventory for the Transpac, and a gift from the Wile E Coyote team.

Who's driving?

Heading out




Yay!

Looking pretty good

Flying the kite == beer time when you are full crew.

Very very light air but the boat kept moving the entire time...




To a great day!! Rum and Coke!


Gybing in light air...trying to desperately keep the kite full
