A day of seminars with titles such as “management of emergencies“ – we were getting the worst news over first! It got easier, going through rigging, down wind sailing and Atlantic fishing, finishing with us learning how to navigate across the Atlantic, using a transistor radio and a frying pan…if the USA turn off the GPS - the only problem is that nobody carries a small transistor radio anymore!).
We’re busy prepping meals, vac packing and freezing them (Nick has even sourced rabbit for a fricassée and made his own stock).
Early evening saw RB crowded for a chilled CA members drinks - 25 joined a group pic on the foredeck. We’ll be meeting them again in Modelo, Cape Verde after the 1st leg

PS - we’re still waiting to hear that they can repair our spreader. And, as importantly, one of our crew, DB is battling a chest infection and waiting in the UK for his doctor’s clearance to come over.
