Sail to Nassau, Bahamas

D10_Nassau_01

On the run to Nassau, we got a chance to put up the Spinnaker, the large triangular sail used when the wind is on our back. The sail is housed in a large nylon tube. We haul one end of the tube to the top of the boat and then the tube is rolled up, freeing the sail to catch the wind. Quite a sight and quite an operation!
