Our second attempt sailing upwind in 25knts to get from Lizard Island to Cairns was a success! Well… sort of. We had the motor on the whole time because we are still not confident at sailing. But we did motor sail for parts of it. We went non stop for 48hrs running on little sleep and little food. The waves were drenching us and it was a lot! But we made it.
