Winter sailing - 12/20/04 11:39 PM
I tried some winter sailing this weekend. We have snow here in Sweden now and temperatures just below freezing, but the water is still soft. The wind was around 10-15 knots so we could double trapeze without problem, but it was difficult to stay on the boat due to ice build up on the sidebars and the tramp. I took some photos to document it, as ususal....
I will probably avoid sailing in temperatures below freezing in the future, at least in higher winds, it was a bit to dangerous!!
