As a single hander you do tend to wonder how you are going to manage coming ashore in a stonker.
The thoughts that went through my mind were to come ashore and hove to and jump out of boat but I was a tad worried about the carbon foils and the onshore Force 6 wind.
So I sailed around the bund and onto the lee shore.
Sailed up to the pontoon and stepped off having let off the kicker, mainsheet, downhaul and traveller.
The moment the traveller goes loose the D-One just sits very stable while you get the mainsail down.
Very well behaved I thought.
:o)
