Salsus - Get set! Ready! Go!



Well hello and welcome to S/Y Salsus’ first blog on the ARC Portugal rally. We have been ridiculously busy with all sorts of things, which prevented us from starting the nice tradition of blogging on the rally until now. The route of getting to Plymouth from Holland has been convoluted and rushed at the same time, but we did manage to get in some great sailing around Jersey, Guernsey and the fantastic ports of Paimpol and Lezardrieux in Brittany. The boat has behaved fantastically well – the things that were not working were not crucial to the sailing and it looks like everything is now up and running except for our miniVSAT. Too bad about that last one – we wanted to be the best informed boat out there and get there first even though we are the smallest boat (shared) in the rally!! So if it doesn’t go well, we will blame it on the failing technology. :) Great bunch of people in the rally, we’ve enjoyed meeting them and undoubtedly we’ll get more chance to talk and enjoy their company in the next three weeks.

 

T minus 13 hours! We can’t wait.
