Paw Paw - Log Day 68: Happy St Patrick's Day

Wishing everyone a Happy St Patrick's Day. Hope you all managed to visii with a leprechaun and find that pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

For us the day started with dodging squalls in the early hours of the morn and then having a very frustrating sail as the strong winds moved east north east, but the stormy seas kept the swell setting north west. This meant we couldn't take advantage of the wind without having the high seas on our beam. As a result we bumbled along at a snails pace heading in a more southerly direction than we wanted.

The day wasn't a total loss though as we enjoyed a hearty homemade chicken soup to warm the cockles of out heart, accompanied by freshly baked soda bread to add some Irish flare, while watching a movie.

Tonight the seas have settled and we're making reasonable progress again. All's well that ends well!
