good morning (well it is here)

currently have a course of about 260 and a speed of 5.5-6 knots. Yesterday we swapped from the big genoa sail at the front to a pair of matched yankee cut sails the idea to fly one either side and take down the mainsail. However the wind promptly shifted so we have the wind not astern enough to do that reasonably. so we are making the best of it, it is too much faff to swap back unless we absolutely have to.
