We are currently 140 nautical miles east of Madeira. Finally managed to have all sails up today, and the resulting peace and quiet of no running engine was a welcome respite. Since our glorious encounter with that group of dolphins a few days ago, we have seen little wildlife, apart from the few gulls and petrels.

We are now back on the engine again. We envisage arrival in Las Palmas this Saturday. So this will probably be the last blog update for some time.

All’s well.
