What went wrong did âRan out of propane right as we left âTwo cars on our main broke âBlower motor burned out âBlew our electric fuse for charging our phones âWater leak The forecast never came to fruition despite having a great first 80 miles. Beautiful sunset followed by a sky full of stars. It was pleasant sea state. Shit hit the fan at 1am til 10am. Our west wind clocked NNW and picked up. The swell became 4â and we were slamming in it. Some slams made me question if we were going to buckle by the sound of the wood! Pete was a champ and manned the night watch. He ended up tacking 6 times đ Once daylight broke the wind died. We motor sailed waiting for the west wind that never came. Gas levels became a problem. The last few miles Clark towed us into cape may. And boy were we happy! Sweet rain makes it to her home state!! Taking the weekend to rest. 16 days from Bahamas to NJ âźď¸
