I don't motor into the sun anymore
In Response To: While there are times that they are intimidating ()
Even here in LIS there are plenty of floats to snag, and it's impossible to go more than about 10 or 20 miles without running over at least one or two.
We tack if we have to motor into the sun (even if under power) so the glare isn't as intense in our path.
