I think this is the first day of the calendar summer,
and the month of the summer solstice so at least I have long days and short
nights.
It's not particularly comfortable at the moment as we
are regularly taking water over the frony end now and that is slowing us down.
However, we should get to the point of no return tomorrow (between the Azores
and Ireland) and sometime over the weekend I will have to decide to make the
right turn towards Ireland. I just hope the wind shifts away from
east.
I think I'm right in saying that a yacht race called the
AZAB (AZores And Back) starts today from Plymouth. I yacht called
Jac-y-Do from Pwllheli is taking part and we wish
Mark and Phil all the best. I just hope I get back to Pwllheli before they do
