LEG 4
By: RobH Date: November 9, 2018, 2:23 pm

By my calculation this starts at 1500GMT on Wed 14 Nov. Quite a
short leg. Am equiping IG with light and reaching sails.
Current score is LK 2 IG 1: can IG make it a draw?

Rob,
I've just fitted the Code 0, ponder, ponder, can I afford Light
sails as well ?
We look to be pushing head winds much of the way, I really wish
VR would produce some proper Polars - grr Em

I'm sure you don't need those light weather sails, Em (he said
hopefully!). I agree, polars would be helpful.

help I can get. :)

Hi Rob,
I’m going with Code 0 and Pro-Winch (for a change).
See you on the start-line.

Good luck to you too ;)
By the way - great nav work on the RdR IMOCA, I should have
staying higher with you and longer. AND, I think there is a case
for battling across an area of light wind rather that going the
long way around. oh well the fun of sailing.

Thanks, Em. Always a difficult decision - and sometimes it does
pay to go round the edge!

Thanks, Em. Always a difficult decision - and just to add to
the fun sometimes it does pay to go round the edge!
