After a quiet New Year’s day, we floaties got right back into sailing with the resumption of the standing watches. Watch 6 was first up at 18:00, setting seven sails in 80 minutes. Watch 1 took over at 20:00, klardecking all the ropes that Watch 6 left behind and then setting some Stagsegels themselves. Watch 2 made it out onto the kluverbaum for the first time – congrats on achieving nose-to-tail sailing on the first day of the new year!
