Domini - Hats off to Sir Robin...

Ahoy there, Boatblog fans,

We've just been reading about Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, and how at the age of 75 he recently came third in the Route de Rhum. An incredible achievement. Apparently, when he finished, they asked him how he felt and he said, "Fantastic. Never been better. It's great to be at at sea. I feel like a man of sixty."

I'd just like to take this opportunity to echo Sir Robin's sentiments. After two weeks at sea, I too feel like a man of sixty. The difference is, when I left Las Palmas I was only 52.

We're starting to see birds again, so we must be getting close. We saw an enormous one earlier today, and thought it must be an albatross, but when it came closer we realised it was just a lost seagull trying to find its way back to Blighty.

691 miles to go.

Keep on trackin'

Ju & Lyn
