Let’s just say monohull sailing is not for the faint of heart!! First 24hrs of this passage were a bit of a mission- learning to dance with the heel while going about our life. Had a night shift from 2-6am, then another long nap and made some lunch for everyone. Pretty happily surprised by my lack of sea sickness, knock on wood it keeps going… ended the journey with some pretty perfect conditions, almost enough to forget about the struggles of cooking on a gimbal stove… looking forward to longer adventures on Modus Vivendi!
