The cruise from Camaret s/M to Las Palmas was not really top. The weather conditions were bad (but not so bad as for the SY Mola).
1 Ocean Signal MOB AIS had a failure and the SAR France and Spain were helpful to solve the problem. Twice the great sail broke and we could sail also under engine toward Las Palmas. 1 crew was not comfortable with the whole situation and charged me that I am not
capable as skipper.. he missed daily briefings. Next time should i start like: 06:00am - breakfast, weather always same? Distance to cruise? Course same as every day? For me you can not discuss with people they go agressive... So it was very emotionell when we arrived LPA! Despite all the adversities: a ship a crew and I thank everyone for that too.
We could do the safety check with Wilhelm Greiff, did the configuration of the Iridium with Mailasail 'Ed'. Get help from the sailmaker Alisios and some additional help from Rolnautic. Thank you all. Also a big thankyou to the Worldcruising Club and ARC Office to handle all in last minute. Now 2 days after the official start, we are on our way to Saint Lucia.
