One storm to another!

Hit by sudden storm in between Cabrera islands funnelling winds, went from 6knots to 45 knots in a few seconds then gusts to 55 knots. Saved foresail but half reefed main lost with Bimini. Boat nearly on its side. Dodged electric storms all night. Crew did great! And see saw dolphins at last!
