more pix this time from leg 2 from pangkor to penang. we hadd a pretty good race started in 25 knots with a full main and number 3 jib we stuck to the right of the rumb line to stay inshore hunting for the wind change to a land breeze at night. the rain came and killed the breeze so we used the swell to push us towards the land doing 2 knots don each wave with no real wind but the aparent created from the swell. we hooked into some wind off the beach and stated to skim our way up the coast doning 8 knots under gennaker in 3-4 meters of water. bit scary at times.


we fisnshed in 2nd place on irc and were very happy with the result
