Day 2 was quite difficult for the boys and the boat.

Wind force 5/6 wave height 20' at times. Time for crossing 9 hours at average speed 28 Knots including stops for food/repairs etc. A great achievement.

The starboard engine has worked loose causing some wear to the securing bolts. Tomorrow BRP engineer will fix and make good with additional bolts and plates.

The Nav Light welding was ripped off by a rogue wave but is still attached by the wire ! just.

ETD 11th July 11:30am to Sligo - weather looking favourable. ETA Sligo 21:00.
