10.5 hours, 72 miles, and mostly without flopper stoppers. The failure of the fuel transfer pump (again) is a pain but otherwise Tiger Balm performs amazingly well. We have now done nearly 4 weeks and 550 miles without visiting a marina, or lifting any water or fuel aboard; our Italian water maker is performing brilliantly - 38 ltrs/hour!

Off to bed now, and maybe KK tomorrow.
