Sussing out the wind
Day 28, Day 3 from Punta Arenas – Friday 17 February
7.28am: We have woken up to a rainy morning and there is a headwind due to blow all day. We have decided to get on the water and see how we get on, as we can’t tell how windy it is from here.
4.15pm: 54.07.63 W71.00.3. A grey, misty morning with the predicted headwind turned into a brighter, mostly calm day. The mist rose revealing peaks and glaciers. We saw seals jumping out of the water and a humpback whale really close. We are in a narrow bay, Puerto Hope! It was hard to find a campsite so we are hoping that the tide doesn’t come up above the tent!
