More than 6 days between these island is a kind of record...but challenge was to avoid any Yanmar use; ALCYONE need minimum 3k of wind to move with the autopilot.
With less wind, better to disconnect it n go to sleep with all sails on and rudder leewardside...
 |
| Very Quiet conditions from breakfast... |
 |
| To evening... |
Below 3k, autopilot is striking...
 |
| With such conditions, even the best helm should find an alternative occupation... |
After 2 days, wind is back !
 |
| New cal ! |
3 days in marina after 6 month anchored... the megarince
