Qualifying Sail Details

We completed a 160nm, 24 hour qualifying sail on May 18th with all 5 crew on board. We sailed a course from GGB > Drake's Bay > SE Farallon > Pillar Point > Duxberry Reef > Pillar Point > SF R2 > GGB. We did a full dry run of all major aspects of life onboard, including our watch schedule, sleeping arrangement, meal prep, etc.
