On one of my first sails on the 5.8 I went off Adelaide, the wave frequency was jump one 8ft wave, go through the next. This shot was from the video cam and shows us when we had had enough and were virtually stopped but the wave broke over us. It took about a week to decide it was fun. About 2 months ago a 32knot blow made 10ft chop on the same 5.8 off Robe, the sails and mast are still out at sea that wasn't fun..
