Ceilidh of Lorne - 28:09N 15:25W
We continued our preparations on board Ceilidh yesterday and found time to
take a sail out of the marina to view the ARC invitation racing class
starts.
This also allowed us to test our steering system in around 18knots of
breeze with the full main set.
Everything functioned normally so this was a very worthwhile
exercise.
It was also great to soak up the atmosphere building from the supporters
and brass band as we motored out of the dock.
Well done to the ARC organisers for managing these events and continuing an
exten ded social programme to cope with the delayed yachts remaining in Las Palm
as.
We will have our genoa back on board today and apart from a few minor
equipment and stores organising, we are ready to go to sea.
Here are a few photos from the start yesterday.
