Current Position at 4pm GMT New Years Day is 11:58N
37:51W. Sun currently shining in between the endless march of nasty
squalls, wind currently 25 knots, less sometimes, more in squalls, seas are very
very confused, we are getting somewhat tired of this and really hope to see an
improvement ..... soon - as are the other boats around us!!!
Enjoyed our "virtual" New Years Eve party onboard
Matador who are a few days ahead of us, Stuart caught a huge
tuna so him and Steph kindly invited all of us out here to a sushi party for New
Year, entertainment was provided onboard by local group "The Flying Fish", and a
swell time was had by all.
Skipper has finally deployed the lee cloth on his bunk
after being thrown out of bed 3 times, a sensible move it would seem.
Life is continuing in survival mode, it will be a
momentous occassion when the first one of us takes a step through the boat
unaided ... may that day come soon.
Quote of the day
If you are not living on the edge you are taking up far
too much room
