The engine is now fixed and my wallet substantially lightened although less than it could have been if we hadn't been hiding in the Fish Dock to save Marina charges. The new fuel injectors came as promised. It took longer to work out my bill than to fit them. We left Lagos after topping up the diesel tank at 1600 yesterday.
 
We had a good sail hard on the wind west to Cabo de Sao Vicente and are now west of Sines motoring up the coast into about 8kts of headwind. Lisboa ia about 40nm north of us.

Our current position at 1300 Spanish Time is 38 03.58N  9 32.47W
