Against Wind and Tide

This was an interesting sail in that it was a long tacking beat against a 2-3 knot tide and a 10-15 knot gusty westerly. The sail track shows that Little Cat made steady progress, but the tacks were wide (greater than 100 degrees). We had a tacking duel from Point Benicia with a Nonsuch 33 and managed to keep it at bay. Little Cat maintained 4-6 knots to windward and VMG was around 2-3 knots.
