Submitted by admin on Sat, 05/05/2018 - 20:27We had to tie up to fishing boats to wait for a draw bridge to come up (you can see in the GPS track). Tide current (in this case, we were travelling with the current, so like being in a river!) in the canals makes maneuvering tricky.
4/30 Gusty conditions, 7 knots sailing
