It is good to be back on board again. All is well save for some damage to the aft rollers. A difficult  repair but one that will have to wait.

 

First day back and much has been achieved; the covers are off; boat washed; shopping list and menus for 28 days constructed; rectifier replaced; new solenoid fitted and a clear up below!

 

And so for an Atlantic crossing. Three days now to shop and stow, check all the systems, polish the portside, look at the navigation, check the weather and on the fourth day GO. Nothing to it but you can bet it will take every last minute.
