Journal Entry:
Great sailing day. The afternoon was awesome. We were sailing through stunning scenery, a maze of small islands, rocks, and blue water. Our boat was, of course, in the lead all the way through. Around 11 the wind died and we had to switch to the engine. The batteries in the girl's boat were dead, so we towed them to shore and spent the next three or four hours getting their engine to start. After we got underway again the weather started to turn bad. We finally got into Marstrand at about 5:30 just as the weather was starting to get really nasty.
