Shunting a Junk, Balkan Style...

    Just wrapped up a few hundred miles of freestyle cruising, all the way up the Bulgarian coast. 

    Lots of bays on the hook and a wonderful 2 weeks went by...

    Great boat, loves following winds, will cruise all day at 6 to 7 knots, she surfs like a long board almost reaching the speed of light! It gets exciting...

    60 to windward, moving at a good pace, easily gets us out of trouble and takes us anywhere we want to go.

    The JR is great, especially when the Black Sea throws 20 and more knots at you in the afternoons.... 

    Finally I shot a shunt,  in the description of the video maybe shunting will make sense to you too...

    Keep Junking, and Shunting
