Barada

On Weds 15 August we were bombing along at 7knots with one reef in main
and gib with 15-23knots of North wind on the beam...with not a care in the
world, and arrived 1715 at Puerto de la Luz.
We have started rubbing down and applying teak-oil - we will start on the
boat tomorrow! The Boat Yard chief hopes to fit Barada in next week for
haul-out so that we can anti-foul her, but we have plenty of work to do
aboard in the meantime. Plus the Old Town to explore.
