I had a good night and made it to the South East Corner of Ireland. Had breakfast and all looked good until the wind dropped and I started to drift towards the Shipping Lanes.
I could have used the engine but it is not allowed under the non-rules - so I spent an hour slowly creeping away under sail in very light winds. Nightmare.
What made it worse was that the guy next to me managed to avoid it and I watched him sail off , as I wallowed there for most of the day, as the wind then totally dropped.
Anyway, sounds like we will have the opposite problem tomorrow a lots of wind.
I must say that I am finding it much tougher than I expected!
Sounds like perfect sailing conditions to me - hot with no wind to rock the boat! Vanessa xox
