That was certainly true. We left in the dark under a full moon and anchored just before dark. The swell was 4+ meters the entire trip.

We set off under the light of the full moon and with waves of over 4 meters. We sailed reefed for the first part of the journey, but after a few hours I started the engine. I didn't want to arrive in the dark and anchor in an unfamiliar harbor. I watched the sun rise and set, anchoring in the twilight. And there was the moon again. Time for canned chili con carne with rice. Early to bed.
