Today, for the first time in a month of sailing, I tucked in a reef. And then a few minutes later I tucked in a second reef. I guess it was about time. Grey and gusty this morning, I was wearing my dry suit with a wool sweater underneath. It was a short sail, about 15 nautical miles, and I was anchored early afternoon. I consider it to be the last sail of the trip. I am just six or eight miles from the boatyard. I should be there tomorrow midday, sailing mostly to dry out the sails before I put them in their covers. I will spend the rest of the day cleaning up the boat, and maybe relax and read a bit. Then haul out the following day. It has been an excellent trip.
