Even with one reef in, the east wind had me flying downwind out of Willoughby Bay past Swells Point at 7+ knots. Turning NE towards home the winds died significantly. Tacking upwind was a chore against an incoming tide. What otherwide would have been a few tacks, became many. I was determined not to start the diesel.
