At Sea: Lanzarote in sight

October 25th, 2008 · No Comments

Position 29.482,-13.69 at 08:49 BST. Wind NNE 5. 3m swell from North.

ETA La Graciosa is 13:00 today Saturday. Plan the night at this island just to the north of Lanzarote and then on to a suitable spot to meet with Ewan and Jane on Monday.

Looking forward to a night with less movement in the boat. Anchorage on Madeira was rolly poley and the cross swell has made the passage rolly as well. Wind has been 5/6 nearly all the way and we have had up the trysail after the short patch of 30 knots when in sight of Madeira. Turns out to be a good sail combination. No boom moving about either.
