After two days of thorough training on shore, learning the systems, doing dry drills, and learning about what to look for when purchasing a boat, FALKEN and her crew are ready for the next stage of this Sail Training: the Offshore phase! The plan is to head towards some of the Channel Islands as we drill different scenarios under way, from nailing reefing and sail trimming to storm tactics, MOB, and abandoning ship. Weather looks fun for the first night with a little front coming our way before lightening the next couple of days. Everyone is looking forward to what’s going to be a very intense three nights offshore! Updates soon,

By the time one reef was in, it was basically time for a second, and before 1930 we had two reefs and a partially furled headsail.
