High winds in Wales.

Seafair Haven is a maritime festival which takes place biennially. The festival for traditional and classic vessels and long boat rowing celebrates the magnificent Milford Haven Waterway in Pembrokeshire. I was there during the rather dubious summer of 2012. Fellow Paradox owner Paradox Pete was there also and recorded this video while I was tacking down the upper estuary against a force 5. (Thanks Pete)

On viewing this video I was surprised to see how much Little Jim appeared to be pitching as we punched through the waves. From on board it was very comfortable and did not feel that it was anything like that lively. A feature of sitting near the centre of rotation, I suppose.
