Skipper: Ritchie Gatt, Crew: Matt Pike, Phil Onslow and Jennie V. At lunchtime on Thursday 23 October, we are currently lying in Cartegena before starting the next leg to Gibraltar.

We all got together for the first time on Sunday at Palma and spent the first couple of days getting the boat ready for the trip to Gran Canaria. 

We left on Tuesday lunchtime planning to come to Cartegena but delayed our journey at Ibiza while we waited at anchor for a small spell of bad weather to pass through. Resumed passage yesterday morning, encountered some mixed weather changing from bright sunshine to overnight rain and quite a surprising swell. Arrived about 10am this morning in what is a pleasant harbour and we've been for a stroll around the roman city. We think a meal out tonight, and even a few beers are on the cards....
