Off to Gibraltar

Amazing Grace

We're on the move again (N36.37.68 W 7.13.94)!
 
We have some work to do on the boat but thought it best to have some good chandlery/postal support if necessary so we left albufeira this morning for Gibraltar.
 
We're enjoying a really good sail at the moment in 12 kts of wind and speeding along at up to 9kt.  It was a bit of a slow start this morning with only 7 kt of wind so we only did about 4kt but our average is now up to 6.5kt - which would seem to be the planning speed for this boat.  That means we'll be in Gib by 10am in the morning.
 
We'll get our act together and put some pictures up of the trip sofar then (well Julie will as I will be up to my elbows in diesel and toilets!)

All the best J 'n J
