The mystery tour continues! I was up last night until 2
am as there were three data gathering buoys that we were going by and even
though the (small) scale chart indicated they were lit, I didn't see anything.
Then at 7 am I woke and we were becalmed yet again, but fog bound.
I put the engine on at 8 to turn it over and left it on
until 11. I took the opportunity to test the bow thruster and radar and they
seem fine. I also tightened the shrouds and some of the stays, as they do
stretch apparently. At 11, the engine went off and I had a wash and shave in the
cockpit but it was cold.
However, it's sunny now,and a solitary whale is off the
starboard side keeping as very respectful distance.
Last night, I devoured or inhaled as Columba would say,
the vanilla cake and oatcakes from the ration pack but there were no films or
documentaries available on the laptop. They'd all expired.
