Getting Closer, Getting Nervouser
23 February 2018 | 175 Miles South West of Stanley
5:00pm Friday 23rd February 2018 ( UTC-3 ) The wind is not all that strong from the North West, say just over 20 knots, but being hard on the wind there is that inevitable thump now and again and each time this happens I think of reducing the sail a bit more. It is supposed to stay like this all night and then get quite strong - over 30 knots for most of tomorrow - in the morning. I will probably reduce sail anyhow with that jar that just occurred and hope the promised light South Westerly will carry me to Stanley on Sunday/ Monday. Thanks to Bob & Janet I was able to correspond with Customs and Immigration so they are expecting me. I got out the iPhone from its case and was surprised to find it had gone quite flat so plugged it in to the charger - nada! Checked the cord on this iPad - similar. I have one last cord in its original wrapping and thought this will be nicely sealed and fresh but was disturbed to find the front was nice waterproof clear plastic but the back was soggy cardboard. Luckily the contacts were bright and shiny so a sigh of relief was heaved.
