Friday 7th October. 420 miles from Lanzarote
Bellone
Fri 7 Oct 2022 14:30
We had a peaceful night with only the mainsail out and
with two reefs in it. Ian allowed me to have a lie-in which was very
welcome.
I got up at five but not a lot was happening. At ten
this morning we turned the boat (gybed) and we now have a course directly to
Lanzarote. Let's hope that continues, and if it does we should be in the marina
by late Monday afternoon.
Ian has been moving mattresses around this morning to
try and make his bunk, on the saloon bookshelf, a bit more comfortable and so he
will test it out tonight.
We haven't had any major gear failure yet, apart from
one of our own making. We managed to snap one of the spinnaker poles the other
night. Completely avoidable though!
