Tomorrow we will leave for the Azores.  It should take 12-14 days and the forecast is looking good - we are expecting a SW wind of 20-25 knots for the first few days.

 

We have had a lovely time in Bermuda, but are looking forward to the next leg of our journey, particularly as lots of our friends are in the Azores, including Tamarisk, Blase, Temula B and Expresso, as well as Barnowl - recently arrived from Chesapeake.

 

 

Sue leaves us today, on the evening BA flight.  We are planning to spend the day fuelling up, checking out of customs and doing cleaning and a trip up the mast for Charlie's final check before departure.
