From Grenaa to Hov

23-08-2010



During the day we arrived from anholt the weather forecast kept worrying us. Only tomorrow the weather will be fine but after that there will be several days with winds up to 20 m/sec.
so we decided to keep close to the coast and go to Juelsminde with as an escape harbour Hov.
And we shure did need the escape!
The day started with almost no wind ( again) but at noon some wind came up and we could go on sailing.
At two o'clock suddenly a warning came over the VHF for a 14-18 m/sec wind in our area! So I reefed the sails and not too early because after 20 minutes the wind increased , first to 78 m/sec and then to about 15 m/sec. I already decided to take the emergency harbour (Hov) and at 16.30 we moored safely in this harbour.
Looking at the weather forecast we will have to stay on to Thursday because of the weather!



Doesn't look very nice does it?
