However, given that’s some 10 miles further south, it makes for a rather long sail, especially for a solo sailor like me. Navigational hazardsThe passage from Crowdy Head south to Sugarloaf Point was most enjoyable as an offshore westerly provided a smooth sea reach. The welcoming light on Sugarloaf Point became visible just as darkness fell, signalling that I was about 15 miles off Broughton Island. Should I continue to the anchorage at Broughton Island or turn back and seek shelter in Sugarloaf Bay? I further assessed my options, but heading back to Broughton Island was not one of them.
