Back on the road again after a delightful week in
beautiful Dingle. Most of the big jobs have been taken care of apart from the
bow- thruster. I did put on a wetsuit and went diving under the boat but
when I tried to prise open the hatch, it wouldn't budge. I'm assuming that it
has wedged somehow after all the pounding it went through. It will get sorted
out when we next come out of the water.
It should take three to four days to get to Pwllheli.
Light winds are forecast for today and tomorrow, and strengthening for Friday
and Saturday.
At the bottom left and right sides of Ireland are
traffic separation schemes (TSS) and they don't like troublesome little yachts
in the middle of them so we will have to be extra alert when we approach and
pass them. The first one should be around six o'clock tomorrow
morning.
Columba's daughter, India, has had a major operation
this morning, and as I left Dingle she was still in theatre. We wish her a
speedy recovery in the coming few days.
