With 66 nautical miles to cover to get to Sodus Bay, we left early in the morning, just before sunrise. Monday's winds had died down, but the waves, although not very big, were almost on the beam, making for a rocky ride. We motored for about 7 hours, when we realized we were seeing white caps on the water. That means there must be wind, although it didn't seem that windy because the wind was coming from behind us. We raised sails, and were actually sailing faster than we had been motoring, hitting 7.2 knots a few times. The waves, in the meantime, were getting bigger, and it made for an exciting ride. I finally had us reef the sails, and the ride became much more manageable (or slow, depending on your perspective).
Almost 12 hours after we left, we arrived at the Sodus Bay Yacht Club. There was no Officer of the Day on duty, so we pulled into an empty slip and went into town to check in with US Customs on the videophone. Back at the boat, we snugged down the boat and had a well earned refreshment before heading over to Captain Jack's for dinner and our first Yuengling Black & Tan of the trip.
