Lovely place, Vigo, but it rained a lot and was
getting decidedly chilly for us. Passage to Porto was uneventful,
with little shipping to worry about. Covered 83 nautical miles in
17.5 hours. Wind astern and rolly seas made for an uncomfortable
1st half on port tack. Better when we gybed onto starboard. New
marina at Porto is very welcoming but building work is on-going -
and we're under the flight path. Skies are cloudy too. Let's
hope we find somewhere nice to eat for Paul's birthday supper. |
