Hi all, we are about 60 miles west of the
westernmost of the Cape Verde Islands. I understand that a lot of Arcers have
put in there to refuel. These are members of the South heading group. Our
passage so far has been characterized by little or no wind , and for boats with
big Diesel tanks (not us!), a lot of motoring. We continue heading South in
search of the mythical Trade winds.
Other boats headed West and found much
more wind but I am confident that you can guess which facial feature it was
blowing onto! We briefly joined that group at one time, but now we are back with
the South group.
Snow and wintry conditions?? You don't
know how lucky you are. Will try to update more regularly in case anybody is
reading this...
