Hi All
Well a rock and roll old night, big waves from every direction. Position
19.30.4N 24.34.12W
We have all developed various ways of wedging ourselves into a reasonably
comfortable place to sleep with varying levels of success!!! We have to continue
more south than west because of the weather, the trades have not established yet
so we have to continue to dodge little depressions. But hey, every day brings us
a little closer to home.
We ate our first bananas from La Palma yesterday, very nice, just 300 to
go. As usual the rolling has caused a few things to malfunction, radar stopped
last night but we brought it up again today. This morning was spent rigging the
spinnaker pole and we now have a poled out head sail although it just adds to
the roll.
Till tomorrow
