28th Oct 2016; Latest updates
- Extra fuel cans arriving today.
- Polar diagram(see dowload above) sent to weather router to assist.
- Discovered that shore socket for climate system was wired incorrectly. Fixed and working perfectly now.
26th Oct 2016; Arrived Cascais. Yachtworks coming tomorrow for engines service. Genset only 25hrs. Oil and filter after first 50 according to book. So not on the to do list. Also have issue with shore power socket. Yachtworks going to look at that as well. We are organising additional fuel cans with a local guy (friend of Jorge Ventura).
24th Oct 2016; 10.30 GMT Departed La Coruna
24th Oct 2016; Captain Reports
We will be departing La Coruna today at around 11-12am. This gives the weather currently off Finisterre (30knts Southerly) chance to drop off and move out in to the Atlantic and us the best opportunity to go from here to Cascais without further stops.
21st Oct 2016; Arrived La Coruna due to poor weather.
Captain reports;
A bolt holding the door to the outside ‘VIP’ cabin worked it’s way loose and fell on to the floor ………… We’ve put the bolt back but I think this fixing should have a spring washer as I can see this happening again

14th Oct 2016; 10.57 Advised to divert to to La Rochelle for quick repairs. ETA later today

We have water ingress. Port Aft cabin. Possibly around hatch edge or could be through moulding. I’ve made a video but can’t send it until I have WiFi. We’re heading in to Royan this afternoon.
14th Oct 2016; Departed Bordeaux
13th Oct 2016; Captain reports
We had a couple of little bits to do. The tide time are unfavorable and it’s free mooring here. So we’ll probably go tomorrow morning.
