In the distance ahead you can just make out Will's yawl HERENTHERE.

Don't know where else to put this, but Leo gets a mention in Classic Boat magazine https://www.classicboat.co.uk/articles/classic-yacht-symposium-2025-highlights/?utm_source=The%20Chelsea%20Magazine%20Company%20Ltd&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=15085725_CBO%20Newsletter%2013th%20July%202025&utm_content=Article%204&dm_i=6NM,8ZC7X,AD3ED9,11HR2R,1

A lovely picture. Our schooner dislikes sailing directly upwind or downwind even more than a gaff sloop. We've often entertained ourselves by gybing back and forth over and over again. Great practice for racing, but it does require putting down one's adult beverage. LOL
