Stormy Night...

What a night. Wind up to 40 knots and beating against it with heavy rainfall is not the most comfortable night. The wind is howling threw the spreaders and the boat is pounding from one wave to the next with a big shivering bang every time. Inside the boat everything has to be tight down and the walk to the head can be quite acrobatic.
And then the mainsail gave up again. This time there is no chance to repair it so we need a new one. So the next 1000 miles we have to sail with our genoa only what makes the trip a bit longer, but FREEFALL sails quite comfortable without the main.
We are licking our wounds today and getting everything dry.
Everything else is fine,
Axel
