Very stressing day… In the morning the ship was dancing on the waves in Golfo Corcovado. Grey sky, rain. According to the schedule the ship should reach the destination today at 6 am. Forget it! Our guide announced that we should be in Puerto Montt at 9 p.m. and we will land if… the wind which is now very strong will be reduced.
Some of my fellows are booked for the afternoon flights from Puerto Montt – it seems that they already loose their seats in the planes.
I gave myself 24-hours flexibility so I can still can be on my schedule. but what will happen if due to the strong wind we will be drifting all night? After 2 days they allowed me and few other fellows to see the bridge. The captain did not appear, nobody saw him.
Thanks God in the afternoon the wind almost stopped. On arrival to the port the company gave us opportunity to see how do NOT organize disembarking. Lorries are important to go out – passenger can wait! Finally they packed us up to 3 minibuses and sent to the town bus terminal – 15 kms away. Pier of Navimag is no longer in the town but far on the outskirts of Puerto Montt…
I found my guesthouse in the dark. The epic marine voyage is over! Tomorrow to Argentina…
