Getting round the corner

Day 34, Day 9 from Punta Arenas – Thursday 23 February.

7.12am: We woke to hail and sleet all over the tent this morning but were warm inside. We’ll be on the water again today. Our aim is to try to get ’round the corner’.

1.15pm S54.31.7 W72.01.2: We made it round the corner of Brecknock Peninsular. There was a 2 metre swell off the end and a strong, tiring headwind, which left me feeling low on energy so we stopped after three and a half hours and landed on Boulder Beach. It’s very pretty here with lots of islands of bare rock, speckled with snow.
Tomorrow we have another 10 kilometres to go in a south westerly direction before heading east.
