As the sky darkened and the storm clouds approached, we took the start. The winds came up quickly and we took a reef.  The wind gusted to 37.  We doused both sails, a lived the yawl and motored for home but not before we got a sheet wrapped on the prop.  The crew and the boat handled the difficult conditions!
