BRIZO - Leg 14 La Reunion to Richard's Bay South Africa



We departed on Saturday, November 5th at 11am, local time, for the 1,380 nm passage to South Africa. The start was a fast one with 25-30 knots of wind and choppy seas. It was an exciting start but we paid for it later - a few of the crew experienced varying degrees of uneasiness.

Sunday gave us light winds and a more comfortable ride and I'm happy to report everyone is in good spirits on board. Lighter winds have come from the northeast, which makes a difficult sail for BRIZO, so we started the engine early Monday morning and will motor through the light wind phase, hopefully returning to full sailing this afternoon.

Looking forward to hearing the results of the U.S. Presidential campaign early Wednesday morning.
