Buy a double-ender, turn it around and back-down all the way to your

After almost twenty years of cruising under sail, I have finally noticed
that the wind is always coming from the direction of my destination.

I have also noticed that the wind is either: "Variable less than ten
knots" or "small craft warning."

I wonder if Eole went to school with my first wife and if i should not
just sell the sailboat and buy a trawler?

Have fun
