Rochefort delivery stage 4

Brendan Guerin

Heavy seas leaving Camaret, as we crossed the bay. Running with the tide and the wind, around the point with le Phare Saint-Mathieu at our side. Double reefed Genoa only and we made 8.2 knots. Continued with the wind and tide all day. Max speed 11.4 knots, with sustained 31 knot wind gust. A long rough day, cold and windy with lots of rain. A typical day in Brittany I’m told.
