Left Puertito at more or less first light after a
fairly sleepless night, due to the wind. The holding was OK and there wasn't
much swell but the wind, Aiee!!!
Anyway, after another 7kt average trip I'm now
anchored off Pasito Blanco, near Mas Palomas. The anchorage is open, but the
holding is good so I'll probably stay here for a couple of days to recover. The
swell coming over (swell, well about 3-4 metres and F5 gusting 7......
regularly) was on the beam which made for a lumpy old trip. Couple that to being
tired before I started...... Must be getting old, or something. Anyway, just had
supper and a couple of beers. I think I'd better test the Ron Miel to make sure
it hasn't gone off, it's been open four days already and you can't be too
careful.!
