Away at last
08 March 2015 | Atlantic heading to Salvadore, Brazil
New Crew joined in Mindelo: Christopher Peck and Nataliya Lyubimova, but then Christopher had an accident getting onto Arombai at the Marina.
Christopher Peck: Gutted I couldn't make the trip it was a hard to say no, hopefully you have good weather all the way, my injuries are slightly crushed nerve endings, torn ligaments and lacerations to my ankle but we know it could have been lots worse, stay safe!
Then delayed waiting for the heat exchanger to be fixed and also the installation of the wind turbine.
Finally departed at 10:30 am on Thursday 5th March 2015
15-20 kts NE Winds looks like making 100 NM a Day, everything ok so far. Update for Friday 20:15 UTC.
Position: 13 19.0673 N 025 28.8830 W
