Title: Arrived at Camaret

[<< Prev Post] | [Next Post >>]
[Back to Index/Map]

Our position is 48:16.74N 04:35.35W

Arrived at Camaret at 23.00 after a tedious beat up the French Coast. An opportunity to catch upon sleep and reprovision with fresh stores.

Our intention is to set off this afternoon to cross Biscay.
