d212 - yesterday the wind was blowing at 8-17 but almos directly down the coast, so I had to tack a couple of times, but at least going through the channel under sail was easy. I averaged around 6knots (probably faster, I was doing just over 8knots for a while before the wind died down). I think the to total distance sailed was about 11 or so NM. I know I've sailed that stretch a number of times and usually didn't have to tack that much, but I've never been able to sail it on just one beat.
