Well our trip finished the way it started - cold, wet and windy. We left early to make sure we had enough tide up to Canaipa and to be home before the predicted strong winds later in the day. We motored initially through the narrow channels, then raised the main once we were past Canaipa.
We started with 2 reefs due to the strong wind warning, however removed them after the breeze seemed to have settled in around the 10 to 15 knot mark. Of course this was the sign for the wind to increase and we quickly put them back in as the wind increased to 30 knots. The new TyeTec reefing blocks are working well. 
It was a quick sail home and Phase2 was soon tied up in her new berth.We have a list of jobs to be completed before we head north again in a month or so. Print this post
