The trip to Sines on 20th June was in light airs and was a mixture of using the cruising chute or using engine. In the evening we had an impromptu pontoon party, which expanded as those who used sails for the whole distance came in during the late evening.
 
On the following morning we had a civic reception at the local fort which was the birthplace of Vasco da Gama.
