Hi There
Skippers report
We are now well into our trip working well as a crew , no violent
disagreements and at last have found the Gulf stream which is pushing us
east at up to 0.5k, this together with 18k of SW wind is making progress
very good and
very pleasant
We are enjoying warm sunny days and starry nights but NO FISH
Joy is beginning to express concern that our food might not last , but I am,
sure the Gin will
Any suggestions for G/T sandwiches ???
we have a rule that we reef the mainsail for the night passage , last night
I
decided that as the wind was light 10/12k and the sea flat we would go with
full main , wrong , at 3 of clock in the morning I had to get all the crew
out
of bed to put the reef in , the dark in 20k of wind !!!!
They were not pleased
All for now
Graham
