Sorry to keep you all waiting, we have been very occupied with getting the boat fit to go, and having got the spares and mended the engine we left Las Pal mas on time at 12noon on Sun 22nd. Nov We are now running down wind at 5.5 Knots at 240d mag. Duncan’s mal de mer is now almost gone and Pete is back to norm. Have got almost 400 miles closer to St Lucius. Pam visited Las Palmas for 3 days and I jumped ship and stayed in a hotel with her. Weather is warm and sunny but still chilly at first light. According to the ARC web site we are not last yet!!! You can follow our progress and also see some good pictures by looking on this web site. Well worth doing. Our position is 24 25 .601 n 20 05.818 w at 1700 25 11
More to follow
Robin
