Port Washington, WI
16 June 2017 | Port Washington, WI
Moderate spinnaker weather
Crossed finish line at Port Washington around 2200 hours Thursday after 13.5 hours. The conditions were flukey at the end. I got caught in a current and didn't know how to sail when I am going faster than the wind at 2 knots. So the end was slow and I was exhausted from all the spinnaker changes. In Winthrop Harbor I was tied up next to Radiance. In Port Washington, I am rafted up to him. Fun coincidence.
The solar had no trouble keeping up while sailing. That is good news. I was worried about the solar panels interfering with the Iridium signal. According to the documentation, going north would be my worse case. I watched the signal strength while eating. Always full strength or one bar less than full strength. Looks good.
