13 September - The race to the finish line

The last leg of the journey brought us from Ystad, at the southern tip of Sweden, to Nynäshamn, a 272 nautical miles race started on Saturday 12 September early morning, with the objective of reporting to work on Monday 14 September morning at 9!

Niklas, in charge!
 With east-south-east winds of 10 to 14 m/s (20 to 28 knots), Belisama runs above 8 knots, under the genoa and one reef in the main sail. The steering gets exhausting and we will take turn one hour each for close to 42 hours, before reaching finally Nynäshamn at 2:30 in the night of Sunday to Monday.
