Onwards! Ever onwards!

We’ve had a look at the latest weather information, had a discussion, put
it to the vote and made the unanimous decision that we are going to be pressing
onwards from our Cape Finisterre waypoint. We did discuss pulling in to La
Coruna, but the forecast is so good, with a gentle start, and then winds
building from tomorrow, but coming from behind us and pushing us across Bisacy,
that it seems pointless to waste such a good opportunity. If we did pull
into La Coruna, we be stuck there for weeks waiting for the next
opportunity.
We will be out of mobile phone range quite quickly, and will probably be so
for the next three days, so if you don’t hear anything, please don’t
panic. We do have the satellite phone which will be pressed into service,
but depending on conditions, it may or may not work. Obviously we hope
that it will work.
Until the next time, stay safe, with love from three of us (Shane, Keith
and Russell). |
