I took the advice of Baz Luhrman in 'Always wear sun screen': 'Do one thing that scares you every day'. This definitely qualified. Totally forgot about the sun screen though.

We sailed to Schiermonnikoog today. Getting there involved sailing very broad reaches in the chop, but once you got there it was nice. When rigging I was unsure whether to take 7.0 or 6.3, but I'm glad I chose the last one. I was nicely powered up and it was nice sailing there! The trip back had me a bit worried though so I made sure I had enough energy left. In the end I decided to follow Johan's example by walking along the sand bar for quite some time and then sail the remaining part. That went way better than I anticipated luckily.

All in all an awesome day!
