Rough Lake Crossing for a Small Sailboat: 16ft O'day Ospray Daysailer

The return trip following an overnight adventure to LBL. I have done most of my sailing on relatively flat, protected waters (and I prefer to stick to those conditions lol). These waves felt huge! More experienced sailors may not be impressed, but for Kentucky Lake, these are rough seas. The south wind blows directly down the length of the lake, generating much larger waves than the NE/E winds I am accustomed to. It was a bit unnerving, but Brigit pulled through! She is a 1960 O'day Ospray (similar to O'day Daysailer).
