Sailing from Hota to Tokyo Bay and Bay Cruising
My quest for deeper water came to an end, and I sailed from Hota back to Yuminoshima Marina in Tokyo Bay, leaving in the wee hours of the day under the still of darkness.
Once back in harbor, I was able to make some repairs and take Wahine out with friends and family.
It’s given me valuable experience — experience I need! — that will help me when I set off alone across the Pacific less than a year from now.
