Next Step - Tuesday 26th November 2019

During Monday night we continued to see other yachts and we passed close behind Scilla and Justine. Also, in the early morning the cruise liner Costa Fascinosa passed ahead of us approximately 6 miles away. The wind had gone a bit light by the morning so progress became a little slow. During the routine morning rig check I found a screw lying on the deck..a little disconcerting, Jeremy later found that it had come from the Vang to boom fitting, so thankfully I did not have to go up the mast.

At lunchtime we had a real treat of sausage wraps made by Jeremy which made a great change from ham or cheese yum yum.. Unfortunately, we have been unable to fix our Watt & Sea hydro generator so it was necessary to run the engine, NB:out of gear, for an hour in the evening. David made a fantastic shepherd's pie with a ratatouille. At the moment the wind over night is not looking too good.
