its a little difficult to do normal things at the moment because the boat is rocking and rolling so much.- it took 30 minutes to make a sandwich today and then I dropped it on the floor!!
sleeping is almost impossible but we are hoping that the southern end of biscay will bring kinder seas
we have seen two pods of dolphins playing very close to the boat and james the skipper is a real help to everyone in keeping us calm and happy
we have been making good speeds today averaging over 7kt/hour in F4/5 winds and occasionally a little higher!
we should be at Finnisterre in 26 hours and ill be a little happier !
all ok at the moment but the saying that yachting is just repairing mechanical problems in exotic locations may well be true
speak tomorrow
