Somehow this passage is refusing to work out as planned. The waves are higher than expected, the wind more easterly, so we’re bouncing along and heeling at a crazy angle as close-hauled as it gets, Pitufa’s ploughing through the waves slowly and we’re making loads of extra miles to the south and will have to go on a tack up north during the night. It looks like we’ll actually need 4 days for a passage of only 220 nm. Still 74 nm to go as the sooty tern flies and still no fishing luck despite the 3 lures that we’re trolling.
