Just a quick post to let everyone know that we have arrived safely in Sydney after a very tough race from Albany. The Southern Ocean gave us a tough ride but nothing compared to the Tasman Sea where we experienced winds up to 60 knots and enormous seas. The toughest race so far but exhilarating once trust was put in the boat and the new skipper.
We got in earlier today, a very good 6th place, and I am now sitting in the CYCA (Cruising Yacht Club of Australia) drinking beer and eating ice cream. A fantastic atmosphere.
A big thank you to my cousin Anne and her son Christopher who were on the pontoon when we got in - it couldn't have been a better welcome.
I will get to post a more detailed account of the past two weeks, this is just an update to let you all know that we are safe.
Be back soon
Kate
