[Kasi]

Safe travel 🧭

[sabergirl]

What a headache this must be! I hope you both manage to keep in good spirits, and enjoy the ride along the way.

Safe travels....️

[Matt]

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.

Adventure

[Giles]

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

[Giles]

And we are off (again)

[Mr Eddy]

@Giles buena suerte!!

[Giles]

You will probably be very pleased to know that will likely be my last post for a while.....

[Twistlock]

I will be pleased to hear you had a smooth trip without any further incidents

[goosehd]

@Giles Don’t be a git…some of us enjoy your posts…very few, but there are some of us

[motojobobo]

Capitan, we look forward to your next trip update! Buen viaje

[Giles]

Almost made it…..couple of hours to the berth….

[endo]

congrats, capt'n

[Twistlock]

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

[Giles]

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....

Going into darkness last night....

[Giles]

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....

[endo]

glad you made through the Bay of Biscay

[Giles]

So am I
