Saturday 4th June 2016

 

The wind has moved around the the South East and we have switched the engine off and are cruising along at six to seven knots. A full English for breakfast this morning a real weekend treat.....I know everyday is a weekend when you’ve retired!

 

Half Way

Yesterday was halfway on this leg. We celebrated with a can of Super Bock Beer each and two year old Azorean cheese...delicious! We are hoping to break the journey in Cherbourg, to try and get the auto pilot and AIS working again. Hopefully, there is more chance finding someone there who knows what to do. Sorry Annabel and Tim, we will have to sail out to Alderney some other time, of course that does mean being able to stay a little longer than one night.
