Made it!

Posted by on October 30, 2012

We made it through the storm, no damage. There were a couple of boats that did not prepare and they were forced to deal with their drama in the middle of the night. A head sail unfurled on one boat during the worst of the storm. The three crew had to go out and deal with that mess in the middle of the night. It’s over for the most part, still raining but the wind is down to 10-15 kts. Temps are in the 40s here, we need to put the boat back together and get south quickly. Hope all are well elsewhere!

    Yes we came through rather well. We were secured quite well but we did heel over a bit during the larger gusts. It’s over! Hope all is well up there!
