Lat S 20 26 / long W 038 46

Day 3
Adventures of the night

An exciting title, don't you think? Rather, the adventure started as early as the
afternoon. Isolated thunderstorms, as they said in the weather report.
It came upon us, it came upon us, the wind speed increased from moderate breeze
into much too much in no time. Sails had to be taken down,
reefs must be taken in sails. While lightning was flashing and thunder rolling and
all the gates of the sky opened. You wanted to just curl up somewhere sheltered, but who
would then manage the sailing? This continued all night.
Rain torture. Wearing for a small crew.
