    Day 14 - losing one sail after the other

    December 1, 2018, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    We rigged the spare genua instead of the mainsail. Thats a lot of work in the rocking waves and with the constant wind fighting you. Two thirds up there seems to be a little problem with the sail.

    The little problem is a bigger one. A tear where tho rollreef got broken. We have to taking it down and go back to the reefed main. 1000 more miles to go and 2 ½ sails gone. We only have one spare one left. And gas for 400 miles.

    But despite that a good sailing day. We take what we get

    Will we make it???
