28º 54.93 N    13º 42.29 W

Left Chatham on July 17^th and had a challenging trip non stop down to Southern Portugal – 1200 nm in 8.3 days.  Bit of rest and recuperation and then we set off for Lanzerote which was just under 600nm.  Left Monday and arrived Thursday night circa 2100.  Best 24 hours distance was 235nm!

Casamara is now tucked up and I will return in November to prepare for the Arc – if not before.
