Misery

Yesterday was tough. Proper tough. We sailed west, towards Trelleborg. The plan was to sail five to six hours, but in the end it took us like ten hours. The wind picked up a couple of hours after we left, and the waves got very big. Some of them broke against the boat and sent sprays of water over the person steering. It’s very hard to do anything when the boat is rocking and rolling, and we mostly sat silent, hungry and thirsty but without the energy to get anything done.

When the night was over us and the darkness made it hard to see we reached the harbour. I made some stupid mistakes and the wind pushed the boat more then what seemed appropiate. I drove the boat up on some shallow sandbanks and we almost got stuck. Luckily some people saw our problems and helped us out.

Now Im tired but i have to run some errands so Im on this bus heading for Malmö. Hopefully we an sail out tomorrow if the wind lets us. At the moment it does not look like it.
