Cutter rig at last

Went out for two and a half hours today (1330 - 1600). Just 8kts of wind. From the end of the Mount Batten breakwater, we sailed to fort Picklecombe. We were thinking of going out the breakwater for the first time until we were headed off at the western entrance by an Aircraft carrier with its two tugs and defence police ribs and boats. We did get the stay sail out for the first time and became a proper cutter.
