A pleasant meander along the east coast of
Fuerteventura. Mainly motoring, a bit of motor sailing and for one hour, actual
sailing!! About nine hours in all and about 40 nm in total. I was going to be a
cheapskate and anchor outside for tonight before coming into the marina tomorrow
but the wind had a hinto of ESE in it (that's my story) which was blowing, at
4kts, directly into the anchorage thus creating a lee shore [if you talked
yourself into being paranoid about 4kts]. Anyway, all secured OK and off th see
the Port Captain tomorrow, the security guard having taken the boats [and mine]
details.
I'll probably stay here foer a couple of days
[depending on 'la Quainta'] exploring the island, then on the road again towards
Gran Canaria.
To cheer you all up, it's been raining on and off
all day....BUT AT LEAST IT'S WARM RAIN, so ya boo
sucks!!!!!!!
