Weather helm test

We sailed off the dock and continued to sail, we had a really nice heel. For work party we put the boat back together and then tried fixing the weather helm by striking and then slowly resetting them. We had to decide speed vs weather helm and some weather helm can slow you down a little. In the end we struck the mizzen topsail.

The 12 to 4 has new chores, we didn’t have many so they give us a shit ton instead or redistributing them. Everyday we now have a new thing to deep clean and it rotates through out the week. A lot of it seems silly to do every week, why take all the extra water out of the heads and clean it every week.
