36:49N 016:29.3W We saw a turtle and lost 2 fish off the lures, the wind kept
up all night and the seas have built to an impressive size, all ok but the lack
of sleep and violent motion are beginning to tell, P3 standing up well to all
the crashing about, nothing broken yet! Still hoping to make Portimao Sunday,
can’t wait, this ocean sailing is great but not at times like this. Joe and
Karin are appreciating the experience, even if they are not actually enjoying
this bit, both still smiling though. Wind currently 35 knots!
