My wife does not really enjoy rough weather or extended trips with a lot of heel. Her usual strategy is to go up to the V-berth and sleep until we get in to port. She is happy if our end destination includes interesting things to do on shore and showers are a big plus too. She isn’t afraid, she knows this how the boats work, she just would rather not get bashed around if we can avoid it. There are exceptions – once trying to beat out of Rock Hall in the narrow channel where the 25-30 knot southerly was funneling waves the length of the Bay into a confined area was miserable and slow. I think we were maybe making good 2 knots at best. *I* was getting tired of it and mentioned maybe going back and waiting for the wind to change. I was informed there was some kind of antique sale going on in Chestertown and I was going to keep going and wake me up when we get there!
