A quite 24 hours due to the wind gradually
decreasing well it had to happen,dont say I didnt tell you :-)
checked the replaced halyard today and found no
chafe hooray. a big task involving lowering the head sail pointing up to wind (
oh thats whats its like pointing to wind) and then rehoisting no mean feat
amonst us men of leisure.
But hey ho you know how it is.
With the wind gone or virtually gone its very warm
aboard the good ship cafe seerose today 35 c temp.
Most crew members have been refreshing using a pan
on the bathing platform.
Had another meeting this morning and all agreed
they would like to go sailing tomorrow.
lunch was spagetti cabonara cooked by
Greg.
Now im so hot Im going to slow this boat down and
go for a mid atlantic
