was really tough
there was 5 knots of current and 20 knots of wind against the tide.
In those conditions Dragonfly speed in water is maybe 5-7 knots under engine.
The current was parallel with with the entrance of the harbour.
We had to drift her in, meaing go full steam against the current, wind in the back.
Wait for the right moment and full speed go into the harber, quickly put engine in reverse and break.
Was REALLY scarry but we made it with no damage.
It is like a plane landing with wind from wrong direction.
