All is fine on Karacool - except the wind. It moved
in front of us and so we motored all night!! The doldrum did not lift until mid
morning so now we are sailing again, albeit slowly. We are moving at about 4
knots and the sea is not quite as flat as a mirror!
The radio net today was very difficult. We could
hear Oyster Moon but she could not hear anyone else today except Cordelia, the
American yacht we met in Galapagos. It is so frustrating when the radio does not
work and it is all down to weather up top somewhere. Stephen moved the aerial
closer to the tuner yesterday but so far that has not helped.
we are having another sleeping day - it get too hot
for anything else.
Sorry that we moan about the weather. Will try and
be more cheerful tomorrow.
BW's from Karacool
