Perfection sailing
19 July 2008 | 32 25'N, 13 32'W
N 10-15kt, visibility good, 1020 & steady
Today my prayer for moderate winds was answered rather too well; winds were down to 6-8 kts dead aft for several hours. Now glad to say it has have filled in once again and we are running wing & wing before a nice little 10-15 knots; with cracking visibility and a quiet deep blue sea, this is perfection sailing. God Willing, we should be looking at a Monday morning arrival off Isla Graciosa.
Thanks to Pat, the catering has been excellent with beef stews, spicy pork dishes and home made beef burgers out of the freezer; tonight its casseroled sausages - or as the Lieutenant in the 'Cruel Sea' would say "Bangers, Good Oh"!
Alls well
