1 m swell

Day one start at 6 am, new skipper fouled the prop with the mooring line ! Good start 🥴 poor Antoine had to go and cut it free in a stinky cold marina Then light winds and a very confused sea meant a lot of discomfort for 6 hours under motor until the wind filled in from behind us - and carried on filling in until it peaked at 35 knots with a 2.5 - 3 m following sea - we did 180 miles in the first 24 hours!! 😀 Day 2 onwards - After that lots of motor sailing on autopilot as everything calmed down - even sunbathed at one point Sunday AM arrived at Canet and couldn’t walk straight due to sea legs - hoping I’ll get used to the motion
