After an eleven-week stay in Mauritius, it is time to move on. I am now sailing to Réunion—a journey of 147 nautical miles.
I had a wonderful time here and met some great people. I took a four-day breathing workshop with ‘The Art of Living’ and participated in a ten-day Vipassana silent retreat.
It took me two full days to arrange and prepare for my departure.
The departure was lovely; many people came to say goodbye.
I set off at the end of the day, so it was already getting dark when I hoisted the sails. Unfortunately, the sail feeder came loose again. I had to fix it while the boat was bobbing up and down in the choppy waves.
The first leg was difficult because the waves kept knocking the boat off course. It felt like being inside a washing machine.
There was a lot of shipping traffic at night—freighters either heading for the anchorage or drifting all night while waiting for the pilot boat.
I have good wind, am making good speed, and the weather is beautiful.
My windvane steering system is acting up, too, so I still need to get that repaired.
In the end, I heave-to twice because I am reaching Réunion very quickly.
