Close hauled in 15 knot Nor’easter

As the sun went down the wind came up. Always the way! After trying three different sail plans we are now chugging along with full No 2 Genoa and 2 reefs in the main. Making between 6 and 7.5 knots depending on the gust. Going west instead of north-west, but that’s preferable to motoring. There’s so many fishing buoys etc. a fouled prop is inevitable when motoring in the dark.
