Blonde Moment 1st Blog 2nd day
out. Hello
to one and all from the Crew Paul
– Steve – Tom – Sue and Christine Current
position 25-49N 17-49E heading 230 blowing Leaving Gran Canaria was great fun
especially trying to jockey for a good start place. Steve was at the helm and we
steamed ahead through the pack.even though he got the start point
wrong. Food has been great with Sue and Chris
preparing some top jolly meals. Paul is the skipper and knows everything it
seems and Tom loves his sleep – Girls – Food and oh yes he’s the youngest at
18. Paul
did the trip in 19 days last time so we intend to beat that time and have had
the usual “see you there behind us gags” with other crews but were all sure we
can do it. We
all hope our family and friends who read this are well and not worrying (too
much) about us. If
you have time please send us a message or 2 as always nice to receive emails –
Sue has had 4 already with nil for the remainder of us
!! Not
spotted any Whales – Dolphins or caught any fish yet but early days and will
keep you all updated. Cheers from the Crew. ps Todays Blonde Moment award goes to Steve for being unable to find the start line in Las Palmas - and asking where Pigeon Island was! He was looking at the wrong Chart and those in the know will have spotted that is in St Lucia! He also aled to remove the len cap from the binos and could not work out why he could not see..... however the cooking is greatness! |
