Hello All,
 
More of the same really, I guess the pictures tell much of our travels.
We think at last we have cured our halyard chaff but once again it required a trip to the top of the mast, not my favourite place especially when as soon as I was at the top we attracted every little Portuguese buzzy boat from miles around which set Out~Rageous rocking scary!
Our visit to Faro is worth a mention a pleasant and delightful old city. We rescued a seagull in Lagos and was charged the highest overnight fee so far 134 euros however we had one night free plus 10% off.
 
We are now finally in Seville after a fifty mile river trip, we have re acquainted ourselves with this wonderful city and have decided to stay for ten days. This gives Gary an opportunity to return to Cornwall to visit family. The marina Club Nautico is small but cosy more of a Spanish gentlemen's sports club with a few boats that have not been to sea for many a day. I have heard there are 800 members to about thirty boats.
Out~Rageous attracts lots of attention, whenever we enter or leave the security guard refers to us as the Outrageous ones! 
The temperature here is a 35 to 38 deg and makes any work on deck impossible after 12 noon, we then retire to the marina pool.
Yesterday we celebrated 24 years of being together and decided and had a meal at the same resteraunt that we visited in 2010, we also decided that for our 25th we would have another party at Penhellis, so put it in your diary.
Yesterday we also met an American couple who have circumnavigated twice, Oh we have such a long way to go!
 
Lynn, Derek & Gary.
