[C320-list] Amazing action photos

[Adam Weiner]

Those photos were taken between Sausalito and Angel Island, one of the
few warm places in SF Bay.  It tends to be less windy and a good broad
reach.  We either hoist the A sail or have dinner.  During the photos we
were eating dinner.  We joked that too bad he didn't come by 15 minutes
earlier when we were pounding up the Bay with a 100 and full main in 18
plus knots, not 20 minutes later when we had the A sail up.

It is about 15 miles to this spot from my marina, about 4 miles around
Angel Island and then about 15 back.  Both 15 mile legs are beats and no
that doesn't make any sense.  We joke that the C320 is so fast that it
brings the apparent wind so far forward all the time.

Most of our time and mileage is spent beating, no matter what our
compass course.  This was actually a rare moment.  All the photos were
taken with 5 minutes.

Great stuff Adam: do you ever sail upwind in the SF Bay, or does the
wind 
just follow you around wherever you go? :)
