day4
in three days more we hope we will be at Mindelo!! This morning we could open the ARC files with the weather forecast and the yacht positions…..we are one of the last yachts….but happy!….we could solve the problem with the water maker thanks to a radio connection with Rafael del Castillo our contact in Las Palmas.
The weather is quiet and we hope keep in that way
I miss my sister….a lot….
This morning we could talk to Skirion in Las Palmas…they are fine…

we started the day with the radio connection….and everything is OK …Moonshine, the vessel with problems is ok, so great!..and suddenly I lisened to Ignacio yelling a fish a fish!! our first Dorado…beautiful fish with spectacular colors..and I changed the menu for the day…we will eat fish on grilled instead of rice with mussels…
the wind and the sea dropped, and we are at 200 miles so far to Mindelo……I talked to my sister by Iridium and everything is OK at home….just only waiting for the african pink sky
day6
finally we will arrived at Mindelo tonight!…today has been quiet, and the wind has blowed more than yesterday…and our ETA should be at 2:00am at Mindelo bay
The trip has been wonderful, the ocean has been nice with us in the first step on it.

The weather is great and the hot is here
