Hi Skippers,
1 . . . . .Penquin . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
+852.42nm
2 . . . . .B9FUN (LHR/wf) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
+103.1nm
3 . . . . .DizzyToo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
.+141.0nm
4 . . . . .Inspector Gadget (LHR) . . . . . . . . . . . +176.4nm
5 . . . . .Huckleberry Finn (LHR/wfp). . . . . . . . .+832.8nm
6 . . . . .Lockkeeper7 (LR/wf) . . . . . . . . . . . . +1023.0nm
So B9 down to HF have all closed on Penquin. I will use my
long range system to watch the battle ahead, my challenge is to
close the delta to HF - mind you with only 4kts of breeze that
will be a challenge. Todays positive - I rounded the damm nav
point! Going east to see if I can get some better wind.

Well done for getting round the mark - you certainly didn't make
it easy for yourself.! Yes, go east and try something
different! You never know.

Story of my life ;-) If only I'd got the right side of the
depression ....... oh well, the fun of sailing and I only had
one hairy, mind you, at 4kts the risk was reduced.
Do you think anyone would notice if I headed for Itajai now (end
of leg 7) ?
