First 24h at sea

Great winds and big waves.. and an incredible starting line.

At 1 pm local time on Sunday over 220 boats of the ARC 2009 crossed the starting line off the coast of Gran Canaria. Light winds, gorgeous weather and the incredible sightings of those boats of all different length and make, flying all sort of different flags. The crew is in high spirit. First dolphins sighting just a few hours out of La Palmas. Stronger wind on Sunday evening and Monday. Today again great weather but bigger swell.

Tonight everybody is exhausted and we started our night shift at 10pm.

The entire crew of Noeluna is joining me to wish MARGUERITE …UN JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE!!!!

More tomorrow and some pictures..
