High de high,
Well it back to shake rattle and roll , as we are
transiting across between island groups from north to south and with the wind in
an easterly direction along with the swell we are reminded of our crossing from
the Galapagos and longing already for a nice flat lagoon which should be looming
over the horizon in a few days.
The day has been taken up with getting back into
routine and minor emergencies like the radar mast head pivoting like an out of
control darlik , at first light I was up the pole again ! strapped off with an
Allan key and spanner between my teeth oh what joy , added to this I'm cookie
today , with Lyn having a reorganisation it been a pain in the ass to find
anything ! Nigela Lawson never had this problem !!!!!!
Sail changes were another days bind as the
wind has dropped a little so we put another pole out and flew our little stay
sail alongside our main Yankee its given us 1/2 a knt extra ..every little helps
they say Asda styli ..
Then after washing up it was back to chart
work soughing out the fickle tides on these lagoon entrances ! oh what joy ,
evening meal prepped and in the oven by Four , a galley slaves job is never done
, roll on tomorrow back to the life of my paperback !
An harassed Cookie
