Position 28.7.75N 15.25.56W
After breakfast and the daily ARC VHF news moved the
boat to our new position. We are in slot one and have the bonus of a small
pontoon to get off/on as opposed to going over the bow.
Today John has been sewing jackstays and adding
thickness to a rope for the Boom Brake so we are able to use an easier clutch to
hold it and in a more convenient place. So far unable to source a TNC coax
connector of the size I require although did find a goldmine of an electronics
shop with loads of components, way better than Maplins ever was. Re-jigged
safety chart got laminated for check tomorrow and other paper admin stuff
done.
Still blue sky and 24 here, no
rain. |
