Herradura he we co... well thought we were going.

Lately I have bee just holed up here in Golfito. My autopilot gave out on the way to bahia herradura. along with it went the shaft support bearing, so no motor. and i may have had a possible sea water leak; aswell maybe a diesle tank leak. so i thought it wise to turn back to Golfito. the trip out was going great. I had good wind, and it was looking promising for a nice reah with fifteen knots to bahia herradura. my boats ideal conditions. but i didnt want to run the risk of it.
It took me not so long to get back to the entrence of Golfito, but here i sat for hours, like 4 getting inside. I was against the tidal current watching the palm trees slowly pass me, then me them. and the swells being met by the outflowing current making so interesting looking wavelets.
well all went well while i saild the quarter mile for unknow hours tell i drop the hook outside of Banana Bay. I gave my self a good ten to one scope at high tide, giving me about twenty to one at low. I used the engine cautously to set the anchor.
then it was up to get a nice cold drink, and relax.
a good night sleep soon followed.
