Well, what else do you do after a hard day’s shopping (around the supermercado I might add) Suzy has taken to the foredeck like a fish to water.  Ok, we’re still in the marina but you know what I mean.   Mr Raymarine has been today – finally – and the screen problems appear to be all to do with the software, which he has changed.  Taken a rather long time, but we will test it later to see.  There are Raymarine engineers in CG supporting the ARC, so we will give them grief if it doesn’t work. 

The marina here is not all what it says on the website, still, we’ve got nice clean showers and as it’s the first time any of us have been on the island, will get a car one day to do the tour.  The local bar (pic to follow) is very friendly and there are a ton of Brits working here, so you get loads of good advise on restaurants etc.  tomorrow, we will walk to a beach, which is allegedly not all volcanic rock so hopefully have a bit of swimming etc.  

We have been testing our SSB with an Oz couple who were in the marina, but are now on Gran Canaria, have been having some success with them, so heartened to know they can hear us 50 miles away!
