A very pleasant sail to anchor off Cangas beach in the Ria de Vigo. Great
scenery, warm and sunny with a reasonable breeze.
The pic shows the island del Norte, one of several island marine
conservation areas on the route.
I made an underwater inspection of the boat once anchored, as some
vibration has been felt. The rudder has some play when worked from the bottom so
will take some advice from a Vigo repair yard tomorrow. We collided with
an underwater object when crossing Biscay, immediately afterwards looking astern
I could see what looked like a large blue plastic drum floating just under the
surface. This may be the cause of the problem!
