Another day of light air. We flew the asymetric all day. Even so at times
we were only making 1.5 knots. Most of that was current.
At sunset the wind picked up a little and we made some progress.
Unfortunately the asym takes a couple of people to hoist and drop. We stand
watch alone at night so we switched to the jib. Since the wind is on our
stern the apparent wind is almost nothing. Ghosting along once again.
Fair winds and following seas :)
