The last leg

Conditions were flat calm and zero wind it was a motor job but we needed to get home. We’ve been away for near on 2 months and have the most amazing adventure and visited some fantastic places. The crew have been amazing throughout and hats off to them I salute you all 🫡 Time to recoup and plan the next mission 😂

Brisk sail to Braye

Started off with a good SE’ly full sail that quickly changed and reefed to #2 gusting to 22kts was making 10kts SOG up the little Russell. Wind dropped a little and had a pleasant sail up the race. At the top rain cloud caught unleashed merry hell on us wind backed NW and strong! Only a couple of miles to go so all good Braye was packed and nothing on the breakwater available had to settle for the cheap seats in the south eastern corner
