Team Turicum: Van Isle 360 - Day 5: Missed the current
http://teamturicum.blogspot.com/2013/06/van-isle-360-day-4-missed-current.html
Thursday, June 13, 2013. Van Isle 360 - Day 5: Missed the current. Another day that started with light winds and fighting the currents. A botched gybe and a run in with a tug and tow made us miss the favourable current and we got behind. Later in the day the winds picked up and we had some great sailing up Johnston Strait. The wind got up to 20 knots and for the first time we had to get our #2 jib up. Lots of fun and fantastic crew work made this a great sailing day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Team Turicum: February 2012
http://teamturicum.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 9, 2012. From Vancouver to New York on a Bicycle. Well, riding a bike is not really what we have in mind. However, to give you an idea of what we are trying to do think about it that way:. Sailing from Vancouver to Hawaii is like riding your bicycle from Vancouver to New York. It’s about the same distance, approximately 2,300 NM or just over 4,100 km and we are going at about the same speed of 7 - 10 kts, or 12 - 18 km/hr. Only five more months to go.

Team Turicum: January 2012
http://teamturicum.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Vic - Maui Race Preparation. The countdown to the big event started with the Vic-Maui Race Seminar on January 15th. The seminar was a huge success. We learnt about navigating, weather, rigging for off-shore, sail selection and repairs, regulations and maybe most importantly: How to keep the crew happy with thoughtful provisioning. I hope you will enjoy this blog as you follow us getting ready for Vic-Maui and then of course throughout the race in July.

Team Turicum: April 2012
http://teamturicum.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 9, 2012. Southern Straits on Havoc. A difficult start, a cold but beautiful night and a fabulous run back to Vancouver. A BIG thank you to Ede and Marie who kept the crew well fed. My only regret: I never tasted that banana loaf! Ahead of Icon - look at the smiles! Max speed: Over 11 kts! Tuesday, April 3, 2012. The Pointy End of the Boat. To stay out of trouble at home, don’t use the new frying pan! We practiced hoists, douses, peels, sail changes and countless jibes with the spinnaker up&...

Team Turicum: Van Isle 360 - Day 6: Last leg on the inside
http://teamturicum.blogspot.com/2013/06/van-isle-360-day-6-last-leg-on-inside_13.html
Thursday, June 13, 2013. Van Isle 360 - Day 6: Last leg on the inside. Leaving Telegraph Cove is always difficult. Such a beautiful spot with a rich history. The old boardwalk connecting all the houses and the the the former saw mill is still there. Seven minutes after sailing into “no-wind-land”: The wind got stronger and up went the #1 jib . Seven minutes does not sound like much, but it was enough so we had to watch the fleet sailing away from us. Tomorrow we are off to our first overnight let around ...

Team Turicum: June 2012
http://teamturicum.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 29, 2012. Last weekend was our last practice. After loading more than 15 sails on the boat the crew was ready for an over night practice sail. As usual during our last sailing adventures, it started out with light winds. The plan was to hoist all the different sails we have not yet used and practice some more spinnaker sailing. Working with our stay sail. Reefing the main sail. A quite sunday morning sail. All went well and we enjoyed an exiting weekend of sailing. Saturday, June 9, 2012.
