11:20 Frenchy Time!

 

So we have finally left France having seen some of the true highlights that Roscoff had to offer.... the annual onion fair. Sarah and Rosemary stepped ashore to catch the first ferry back to Plymouth. Hopefully they didnt miss it. We have had a few issues getting the computer system running smoothly, but that is just getting used to the order in which systems are activated and are all cleared up now. Currently just motor sailing at 6.3 knots with a Northerly breeze of 8-10 knots... hoping to get a bit more soon so we can really push on and get as far away from France as possible. Fuel consumption rates calculated at 3 litres/hour at 2k revs.

 

2 crew on deck, 1 in bed, and the last one bored and updating the blog.
