It ain’t half hot!

More motoring on a flat windless sea up the Spanish coast past Cartagena & Benidorm then east for 495 miles towards Sardinia. It’s been baking aboard - Julia has rigged windscoops to help a constant flow of air through the boat. We stopped for a mid-ocean swim off Cartagena which was bliss.

Hoping for the some wind - it is forecast over the next few days - but on the nose from the east - hey ho!

About 1100 miles to run to Preveza, we are over half way now and Tom is threatening the line crossing virgins with the traditional Neptune ceremony. I thought that only applied at the equator.

Love to all
