As we were sort of passing, we pulled into Mindelo
Marina in Porto Grande in the Cape Verde Islands for more fuel. On the way
in we spoke to a couple of other ARC yachts who gave us information on how/where
to get fuel after hours. That sort of friendship has proven commen with our
contact with other ARC yachts all along the way. It was only a short stop as we
were on our way within a few hours having taken to chance to have dinner
together.
This afternoon Ben decided to do some deck
cleaning. To be fair the decks needed a clean. The trouble was that with some of
the hatches open there was a certain "ingress" of water into one of the aft
cabins meaning an early bath for a couple of sleeping bags. Oops! Philip
was a close call from asking for the Mr Grumpy
