Caleta Cliff

46 26.911 S, 075 18.137 W Caleta Cliff

We were up early and on our way. Once we got out of the Canal we had a push from the current but not from the wind. The wind swung from W to SW, from 3-5 to 18-24 over the course of the day. The seas went from < 1 meter swell to 2-3 meter swell with a short period, wind waves were 2-3 feet. As we started to approach the line of squalls and we still had not rounded the last cape we decided to duck and cover and go to Caleta Cliff, a great anchorage. It was a little bit of going on faith as we had good GPS coordinates and radar but both sets of electronic charts were off about 2 miles!!

We will check the gribs tonight and see what happens tomorrow. We still have about 120 nautical miles to go yet!

Cheers
