The Travels of Running Tide

Made it to A Coruna this (Friday) morning. 3 days
19hrs from Falmouth. The last day was charactarised by light winds in contrast
to the previous day. We ended up motoring for about 12 hours before things
picked up again.
The journey to A Coruna has comprised some
great sailing weather and RT has performed beautifully never giving us any
concern to worry.
Weather for the next few days is a little
inconclusive and so some decisions will have to be made soon on how to proceed.
A direct sail to Madiera seems unlikley unless we delay until for the
weather to settle into some sort of pattern. Wind on route to Madeira
is charactarised at present by light airs and variable direct with the
remants of a hurricane floating around to the west, but probably too far away
for our concern.
