1200 hrs 24th June position 63:22N 27:52 W.
We left Reyjkavik Iceland 24 hrs ago and are 180 n miles into our 1150 n mile
journey. 15 hours of 35 knot winds and the resulting rough seas but now motoring
in 5 knot headwind! The latest Ice reports mean that Prince Christiansund is
still blocked and we need to stay well off Cap Farvel (60 to 100 n miles)and
then turn North and go directly to Nuuk.We are travelling in company with John
Andrews on board Suilven and it is good to have a friendly voice to talk to.We
are settling in with our new crew Magnus and Laura and need to pace ourselves
over the next seven days.
