Montevideo to Colonia

With the bad weather of the last two days having cleared there was no particular hurry to leave. Colonia was an overnight trip anyway.

With a good forecast we got away just after lunch with light winds and slight seas. It was again necessary to motor sail.

Montevideo from seaward. It was not far from this spot that the Graf Spee was scuttled.

With very little help from the wind we had an uneventful trip overnight.
