Hi all.
forcaster got it wrong first day out. we left lunchtime and straight into a 20-30 knot SE.
Darren seems imune to sea sickness but christine has been a bit on the green side. She will be ok in a couple of days. Wind has backed off. But Otto the autopilot had a "moment" and gybed the main which parted the main sheet block so we have been on headsail alone half the night. Suns up so ill go fix it it.
Ill be getting the gribs(weather files) down now as I send this so wont be able to reply till tomorow.
record 24 hrs anyway at 171nm
cheers steve
