1130hrs GMT
Position 43 38N 007 23W
Course 145
Speed 4.5knots.
The Gales encountered yesterday have now ceased with the wind having shifted from the South West and forecast to veer from the West then from the North. A much better direction for sailing South!
We've been motor sailing so far, and hoping to get some 'proper' sailing in soon.
A couple of crew still under the weather with a bit of 'mal-de-mar', but most have found their sea legs.
Anyway, the sun is out and the sea has started calming down, and looking forward to the wind in the right direction for a change!
