THIS IS IT , HERE WE GO

Well we are ready for the off , David arrived in Olhao on the 8th and we wasted no time in going for a trial sail , bit of a shake down , and then we headed up to Portimao , bit of a trip as we had to tack all the way sometimes into 20 knot winds , but with No 1 genoa and the main with 6/7 rolls in she did a steady four knots we left at 10 am and arrived at 1230 am the next morning ( early hours ) after a quick breakfast we made our way round to Lagos to stock up with fresh food Diesel and water , and are ready for departure which will be around 8 am on Wednesday ( tomorrow morning ),
gribs look like this for the start Horta probably 12 days.
best
Mick and David
