On Route to Maderia
Left Albufiera finally at 08.00 on the 22nd. We had come
to really like the marina and
town. The staff in the marina were particularly helpful.
Having finally received the spare
part for the generator too late on Friday to depart
we decided to take a walk along the
cliffs opposite to the 'town' side and discovered some
lovely areas that are at present
undeveloped.
Our sailing has been cold and rough so far with winds up
to 45kts - a rude awakening!
A lot different to the
last time we sailed down here with Vicki and David but that was
two months earlier.
Approx 270nm to run at 14.00 hrs to Porto Santo our
first stop.
