Salt & Tar: Ep.209- 9.9 KNOTS!

Susan and Reid, Garrett’s mom and brother, make the. 20nm trek to Port San Luis and we have a new speed record!!! 9.9knots!?! This traditional sailing girl can move. It was so great having extra hands on board to push Rediviva into port under full sail. Another sea trail under her belt… well, keel!
p.s. I try and reply to as many comments as I can but we are still so so busy so please do not take it personally 💕
Much love!!!

    WOW Who needs a sea trial, just send it! 9.9 knots. I think Rediviva is taking to her salt life so well, because you built her with all your experience of what you liked and disliked from your previous boats, and used that to make your perfect cruising vessel. I'm sure Mom was bursting with pride getting to share it with you both.

    What a great sail guys, a joy to watch! Just want to comment on the gybe at 9:00. Where Garrett said "Take up on the port running back then release the starboard one". The order on that one is very important, as (especially going downwind) the running backstays are the only thing preventing the main mast from going forward. Ruthie released the starboard one first, before setting the port running backstay so you're sailing for a while without a backstay and only relying on the strength of the mast. Please try to not do that too often, as it can ruin your day quickly. Fair winds!
