I missed the Maud race so I decided to do the Overnight race - Single Handed. I intended to resign since I was not physically prepared to do this race.
Race was basically from AD14 to AD30 back and forth from 8:30 to 6AM.
We saw the sunset, rain, clouds, and a bit of an almost full moon for about 15 minutes before ducking behind clouds. We had several rain cells ... drizzle to light. Wind shifts of 180 degrees.
At 1AM, I abandoned, since I was quite distance behind Slow Dancer II. I anchored in Valois Bay near the GUT. I left the VHF on 77, but did not hear any traffic.
Sunday morning I hauled anchor and motored to the club sheer legs and checked the main sail sheaves which were fine.
Chaos won by a long shot
