DELIVERY Mossel Bay to Cape Town 1st October.

Team Yolo spent the day in Mossel Bay, waiting for the intended wind shift.. as soon as the shift was noted in the early evening on Saturday the 1st October, Team Yolo made to sea.. once around St Blaize, there was good winds and reaching to be had with good speeds making progress through the night. In the morning rounding Cape Agulhas and then the “home leg”.. with the breeze getting stronger and stronger as one got closer to Cape Point, which is normal in a South Easterly pattern.. Yolo chose to sail Some 30 NM South Of Cape Point, where a final gybe was executed to lay final approach to Cape Town.. winds at this point were peaking at 36knots and top speeds were around 18knots.. so sailing was fast and wet in the night hours.. A good sail to Cape Town.. with the delivery taking some 31 or so Hours.. Aboard were Dale and Ian.
