Today there was not enough wind to sail in (< 5 knots most of the time) so we motored from Punta Quepos. We left at 7 am and arrived at 3 pm. There were 3-4 foot swells from the southwest on the forward starboard quarter so we rocked and rolled listening to the engine drone on and on. We did see some spotted porpoises and turtles, some with a bird hitching a ride to break up the monotony. There were some logs and branches in the water which we were careful to watch for.
Of course, 15 minutes before we anchor, it starts to rain. Not just a sprinkle but a downpour. So the boat it hot inside from the engine running all day and we have to close it all up for the rain. Rich and I are sitting in the driest spots in the cockpit where it is cooler, enjoying our evening drink and watching the sunset.
