Position 39deg 15N 003deg 05E
Course – 062 Degrees Speed – 11 Knots Day’s Run – Miles
Weather – Fine and clear
Wind – 6 knots from ENE
Timoneer went back in the water on Fridayafter a hectic month in the ship yard putting her through her ABS survey and changing the antifoul paint on her hull.
We left Palma with a beautiful sunrise this morning. The conditions across the South of Mallorca have been flat calm allowing us to continue the big clean up to remove all the dust from the shipyard.
We have just rounded Punta Salinas, the most southern point of Mallorca and are now heading for the most northern point of Sardinia on our way to Porto Cervo. Porto Cervo is the heart of the famous Costa Smeralda where Timoneer will be competing in 2 regattas over the next 2 weeks.
First is the Dubois Cup, http://www.duboiscup.com, for 3 days and then next week we start the Lora Piana regatta, http://www.loropianasuperyachtregatta.com.
Please keep track of our progress.
We have just over 300 miles to go to Porto Cervo and expecting good conditions for the trip which should get us in around 4pm local time tomorrow.
