Day 3, Passage to Valparaiso, Mejilliones

23 05.535 S, 70 27.083 W

Last night at 11 pm we pulled into Mejilliones del Sur and dropped anchor. The winds and seas were building and we were not making much headway. The gribs promised more of the same so we decided to stop and take a breather. This included a nights sleep, a shower, transferring fuel from some of the jerry cans into the aft tank, napping and reading.

The winds have piped up again in the harbor which has protection from the south so we will continue to monitor and check the gribs. We may just stay another night, who knows.

There is no need to be in a hurry.
