This is your captain speaking, we have just landed at Marina Mindelo, the time is 11:45 UTC or 10:45 local time. The mooring line can be found on your port side, and please be careful not to hit the waterpost on the dockside when mooring up.

 

Our current position is 16° 53,2' N, 24° 59,5' W and the current windspeed is 6,6 m/s coming easterly from 107. During the last 26 hours we have travelled 126 Nm, adding up to a total of 920 Nm sailed over 7 days and 2 hours, making this the longest leg for the majority of the crew.

 

The weather outside is toasting, approaching 30 degrees centigrade in the shade and todays forecast is slightly cloudy with an utterly insignificant chance of rain. The bay water is a deep turqoise, a delightfully cool 24,3 degrees and the beach is right off the marina to the east. The Cava is in the cooler, a very good Spanish vintage from 2008.

 

We hope you enjoy your stay at Cabo Verde, whose motto is 'No stress!' Please make sure to take your keycard with you as you leave the boat. We hope you have enjoyed your voyage, and welcome aboard again!
