Cleared Cabo de Sao Vincente, gybed, and moving ‘left’, toward Lagos… and eventually, towards Gibraltar!
The weather still cooperating… No fog ( nearly), bright Moon…
The Cabo met us in full strength — acceleration of winds to 25 kts… But we are nearly on a quarter, and does not feel so bad….
The swell is ok, about 4-5 ft, with long period…
We are doing presently about 8kts… under main.
Next ‘correction point’ — within an hour, and we will turn a bit more port, towards Lagos…
Talk soon,
M.
