        Now you’re traveling. I learned way more fixing that Airstream than I ever did reading the manuals.

        Godspeed and have fun!

        Don’t forget the pictures. What with all the downtime. 😎

            We saw this trimaran at the fuelling dock in Cascais, she was heading south and east. A few days later, this happened to her....

                                Vesselfinder did not update your position for quite some time whereas Marine Traffic did. Interesting...

                                  Yes, I think that Marine Traffic maybe better, at one point earlier in the trip VF lost us whereas MT had us all the time....

                                    Slowly slowly.....320nm run from Ribadeo on the north coast of Spain to Brest.....

                                    We had planned to miss out Brest and go to straight Roscoff (because now we have to get stamped out of The EU - and it's a crushing fucking bore), but the sea state was awful a couple of hours ago, so we have peeled off into Brest....
