26 June 2008 – Mackay to Digby Island

SSE 15–20 knots
The winds did ease a little, or so the weather bureau said, although as we bashed our way towards Digby Island it didn’t feel that way. The boat made good progress with a double reefed main although we took a lot of water over the topsides. Unfortunately 2 of our hatches are leaking and this has caused some issues for us to deal with when we get home. We arrived at Digby at 1600 hrs after covering 54 nautical miles to windward in about 9 hours. The anchorage was a bit rolly and stark. We were just happy to have stopped pounding!
