Rain, rain more rain. A bit of a wet day continuous rain
since 0700 and abated about an hour ago. Sorting stuff out in boat for trip up
the Atlantic including unpacking our warm kit as looks like we will need it
especially at night, including woolly hats.
US Coast Guard tall ship left today in the rain. I
wonder if they will send people up the rig to set all the sails or wait until a
little more pleasant.
Put waypoint in for trip back at Bar Buoy. In a straight
line going through San Miguel and through Swanage land distance 1273nm. Today's
weather routing indicates it will take 14 days to get back, we were hoping
11-12, anything can happen yet as forecast of the weather over a week away will
be quite suspect.
In the morning cabin to be put in at sea mode, clear
customs and immigration and last shave and shower until UK, may get away by
midday therefore next update from the ocean waves.
