It's honking here today...

Last night was unusual in that yesterdays strong winds didn't stop. Normally the wind drops off in the evening to a flat calm by the morning. You can generally tell with a certain degree of accuracy how windy it is going to be by how early the new breeze kicks in and how clear the sky is.
It was a good call to pack Sailrocket away the previous day as yesterday was way too windy. Today it is forecast to blow around 50 knots so away she'll stay.
I've never seen it blow all through the night before. Some people are going home to tape up there doors and windows to keep the swirling dust out.
The new skeg is now fitted and I am hooking up the flap-rudder control mechanism.
Hopefully this weather system won't last too long and we can get out in the next couple of days.
Cheers, Paul.
