Glad you survived! It's always good to be back home after a tough passage In time you always forget the bad and just remember the good! I've done 3 passages to Bermuda and in every single one of them I had great conditons down and terrible conditions on the way back. Last year's Bermuda 1-2 return tested the entire fleet. Lots of damage through out the fleet. Some of us recorded 50 knot gusts and really crappy Gulfsteam conditions. My pumps, Brand new Raymarine Autopilot and other electrics also failed. Also I tore a bulhed free from the big drops. The good thing is these events are learning opportunites on changes needed for yourself, boat and equipment. Welcome home
