Record run with all-in-effect

After a restless night rang the alarm clock at six and we went without breakfast on the way towards Roscoff. Die Yacht, the morning had yet alongside made at half past two on us stuck and was torn us from sleep, was miraculously disappeared again. The wind, who had the whole night crying so loudly in our Rick, turned out in daylight as a decent breeze. But that was not nearly as scary, how she had heard in the night.

With reefed sails we made wonderful way through the water, repeatedly stood above 9! Node on the Sign. Kein Lamborghini würde dafür Benzin verbrennen aber für unsere dicke SUMMER ist das schon eine ernsthafte Ansage 🙂 Die Sonne strahlte, the wind whistled tidy and our goal approached in large steps. As we sailed out of the land cover of the island we had to find, that the strong north-west wind the last few days quite a high wave (2-3 Meter) had built. When, after some time, was the flow of discharge water against the shaft, it was really uncomfortable. I've been out of action since this morning (seasickness) and dozed off lying in the salon below deck so in front of me. Dietmar had to do almost everything alone because of me that day was no special help to be expected. Gratifying quickly we reached our destination after only 11 Hours and in the harbor we were greeted by Waltraud and Wolfgang von der SY MENTOR, the kindly was right next to us in the box. What a nice surprise after these long seascape! Then we woke once our spirits with a hearty dinner.

The football look this evening we had 2 more sailors, Kerstin and Ralf from the SY Lothlorien, an Bord. The merry round but the football game was only a minor matter. Cute conversations and interesting experience among sailors was clearly in the foreground. So it is supposed to be and is another reason to venture such a journey.
