First real training day in decent with Jaques and Red. Nice wind but the banks were'nt out so it was just chop blasting. Great for speed practice.. not good for decent speeds. First sail on the Mistral 47 and I love it! Really easy to get going and it eats chop like nothing. Looking foreward to getting on a speed course with it. Pretty damn cold too.. I left Jaques and Red still sailing . It will be interesting to see what they do there was some big squalls as I was driving back to work...
