Dear All,
Well its been a bumpy 24 hrs since the last
communication, the wind is coming from the south west at 20 to 25 knots and we
have been doing a series of tacks down the Ecuadorian coast to get as far south
to the equator as possible , the winds are shifting about and the forecasts
change daily , we are currently heading at last for the Galapagos but will
probable have to put in another tack before we are at level with the Galapagos
.
You wont believe it but we are in light
thermals and foul weather gear at the moment , it has cooled down to a pleasant
22 deg .
The crew thought I had been out to the take away
last night my grub was so good ! talk about blowing my own trumpet.
That's all today folks as trying to hang on to the
PC in this mode of sail is trying to say the least !
A wet crew and great cook
