Lady Stardust Faro-Portugal to Barcelona - 2010

Half way to Madeira

Paul Collister

Fri 25 Aug 2006 12:43

Over half way now (260 miles from Portugal), it's very rough out here so I can't type much, can't upload pictures either. Everyone is fine. we have had steering problems, but they are sorted now, had the cockpit fill with water more than once as well. we're all a bit wet and wish the sun would stay out. Current estimates have us in Madeira for early Sunday morning.

More as soon as it calms down.

Cheers, P
