Dancing with Squalls, today was the day to avoid the squalls. Got wet a little, the bright side the squalls brought some short lived wind but wind is wind. Able to sail during the squalls, probably turned motor on and off a dozen times today.
All good on the Shack, warmed up during the, shorts and t-shirt for a while. When night time and the squalls approached, they were with some pretty chilly breezes. Nothing much going on but sleep, eat, take shift keeping eyse on the boat and whats happening with the wind/waves and the squalls.
We have officially been on every point of sail on this trip, and if you start counting from Valdivia we have have used every sail we have on board, main has been in all but the 3rd reef position, which is reserved for serious winds of 45knots. upwind, downwind, sidewind (one of those is not a sailors term) but we have done it. 🙂
And hopefully we have only another 5 or 6 days till Easter. Definitely will be wind dependent tho.
