We closed Cabo do Sao Vicente around lunchtime, and celebrated with a cold beer to wash down our sandwiches. We are now approaching Lagos Marina, who have a berth for us thankfully (they are sometimes full up at this time of year). We should be safely tied up by 1700, having done the administration and clearing in.

 

Ali obviously thought the cold beer was insufficient recognition of her sterling achievement of putting up with me for so many thousands of miles, so she broke out a Magnum from the freezer – astonishing, you might think, that there are still some in there!

 

Not necessarily in any particular order then: food, sleep, boat cleaning and sorting, engine maintenance loom large on the agenda, and that is just in Lagos…….

 

Ciao for now….
