Well the preparations are now finally behind us
with food stored in every conceivable area in the boat including under the
floors, anchor locker and shower. We are going to eat well, provided that the 4
non cook crew and do the business.
Sally has now headed back to join our UK readers in
the gales after a huge effort to set up provision lists and help store. The two
of us made a 3.5 hour supermarket shop just for the dry goods! Without her we
would have been lost.
So 2700 miles to go. Start is at 1300 today and we
will blog each day as usual.
If anyone wants to track progress the ARC web site
has a complete fleet tracker area which will tell you whether we are North,
South or in the main pack. www worldcruising dot com. Select ARC.
Thats it for now.
John, Jonathan, Davis,
Guy
