Back to Baiona
20/06/07 12:54 Filed in: Ria de Vigo
The weather is still from the SW but is forecast veer to the north tomorrow.
It's about 10 miles round to Baiona and I decided to position Kiriwina there and hope the forecast is accurate. This has the added advantage of knocking 25% off the distance to Viana do Castelo, our first stop in Portugal.
There was no wind at all in the morning and very little by the time we left Vigo at 11:00. Once we were out in to the Ria proper it slowly increased to SW F4. Bang on the nose but once we turned to port towards Baiona we were able to have a nice sail for 45 minutes right up to the Baiona Deportiva marina where we moored at 15:00.
