LIBERTAD

Hi all,

We have finally left falmouth for good, I am writing this from the channel, it is half past 4 in the morning and the sun is coming up (not that we can see it due to cloud cover) after my first experience of night sailing. The weather all of last week was dismal so we had to wait it out in falmouth and then yesterday came the signal that we could cross being winds 4-5 knots and the seas moderate, the wind prediction was good but the seas have been worse than expected.

Ill write a full account in the next couple of days as I am off for a kip.

Hope you are all well

Jake
