Hi all.
we know exactly how far Mike on Drina is ahead of us. 7am bris time we got a call on the vhf from Drina. They picked us up on radar 6nm S-W of us.
Not bad after 7 days at sea. We had a quick trade of water and bacon for mackeral fillets and the race is back on.
The wind has desterted us. motoring since last night. Had a foredeck party it was so light.
just getting the first puffs of the new wind so id better go put some sail up.
156nm yesterday

P.s, the bacon and water for fish and pumpkin went just fine till i put the boat astern. we lost a prop blade. so now we have the spinaker up and doing 3 knots. ill know more about the forecast winds soon. mike sent the current charts and i dont see any wind for a few days.
ciao
