Another starry night clear of squalls and many shooting stars
putting on a wondrous display, but uncomfortable sea making it difficult to
steer. By morning we are less than 200 nm to run so our attention is now turning
to when we would like to arrive.
A
morning shout of land ahoy at sunrise is always nice and perhaps extra special
after 3 weeks at sea arriving into the Rodney Bay marina sometime the morning of
15th December which would be even nicer for VC and SE nee SC who arrive the
previous evening, tired I am sure after their long journey but awake enough to
cheer us in I hope.
The
really good news so far today is no Richard has not yet caught dinner, but I
have finally got ANIKAs engine to start after several days of trying to fix it!
It looks very much like an electrical problem as the starter battery voltage
readings keep showing significant drops. Hopefully a simple permanent fix when
we arrive can be done
Pips
brandy laden cake has through diligent portion control and locking the cake box
yet again provided a tasty moist morsel to compliment our morning coffee and
still some left.
We
have been hoping for a swim in the Atlantic Ocean and still do, but the swell
remains significant so we continue to live in hope.
