This year’s Stanley Cruise took part end of May. It is a 12 mile windward run to another bay. Our handicap was that it gave us 4 minutes advantage to a couple of Oceanis 40′s, so I guess the handicap wasn’t that bad. Winds were forecast Force 5-6 but everyone in Hong Kong knows that the Observatory is usually off, so it could be anything from F2 to F6. Therefore, and seeing the wind speed in our bay, we came up with full main and a reef in the jib. Big mistake.
