With only 200NM to go the problem now is not to get to Guanaja too early
and risk making landfall in the dark especially as there are no navigation marks
to aid our entry to the anchorage. So today’s problem has been how
to slow the boat down to a comfortable 5 knots when the strong breeze is
encouraging her to romp away - unfortunately there isn’t enough wind enough to
get us to Guanaja before daylight goes tomorrow.
We now have two reefs in the mainsail and three in the genoa and as the sun
is shinning we are enjoying this rather slow passage in comfort.
