PC
Next leg: Reykjavik-Färöer-Hebrides-Scotland-Isle of Man-Scilly Islands-La Rochelle. Appr 1,600 Nm over 2 weeks.
Unfortunately, Marielle and the girls have left back hom to start school again. The new crew is purely male, and consists of our two French Yves and Sylvain, Micky from Munich, Pat from Canada, Jean-Claude from Fribourg, and myself.
Departure time: Tomorrow night around midnight. We hope that the wind will permit us to sail all the way to the Färöer Islands, as there is a big depression approaching from the west which on its backside will blow easterly winds with up to 35 Kn in our face.. Worst case, we will skip Färöer and head straight to the Hebrides.
