Left Marina and sailed out of Piankatank in light SW wind. Made about 4 kts on outgoing tide. Once we got out of the river and tried to turn more to the North, SOG dropped to 2-3 kts. Wind went to SE and dropped to 4 kts while boat speed dropped to 2 kts. Around 1 PM, SOG dropped under 1kt. Started motor and motor sailed for 1 hour when wind suddenly picked up to W@15kts. Set genoa again and sailed the rest of the way to Mill Creek at 7+ kts. Peaceful night at anchor.
