Noon Position : 38 59N 26 13W

Course 057degrees Speed 11.5 knots Days Run :45miles in 3.8 hrs

from departure

Weather : Mainly overcast but some sun. Wind : 240degrees 18 knots

News: We left the island of Terceira at 0800 this morning, motored around

the south end of the island and set course direct for the Isle of Wight

1,300 miles away. There is a big swell running which probably came from a

big low that has just moved through to the North of us, so we are rolling

around quite a bit.

The weather forecast looks to be quite good as the Azores high ridges up

into England at about the same pace that we are moving. Look out England we

are bringing the good weather with us!

We should arrive in Portsmouth on Sunday the 6th and will be docked at

Gunwharf Quay.

There were a lot of birds around so we have only just put out the fishing

lines but don’t expect to catch much between here and the UK. We did see a

lot of dolphins and passed close to a pod of them who had encircled a school

of fish in a tight ball and were happily feeding of them. A large whale

surfaced just in front of the bow and Paul, who was on watch, had to swerve

to avoid him.

All is well on board and we have enjoyed our stay in the Azores very much –

a wonderful place!
