Wednesday 28th April – Messolonghi (Cockpit Enclosure Completed)

38:21.686N 21:25.005E

 

Readers will be pleased to note that installation of the cockpit enclosure has finally been completed today; Richard is looking forward to regaining some feeling in his thumbs.  We also finished the washing, pulled the main sail out to check it was still there and functional, hauled the genoa up the forestay in the early evening lull in the wind, and attached the life lines.  There was also a massive repacking exercise so that we could clear the back cabin a bit, store the window side panels safely and finally find space in the aft lazerette for the old cockpit enclosure. 

 

There was a music session this evening which we went along to listen to, quite well attended as it is probably the last session before the mass exodus planned for the weekend.
