Land ho! After departing Ft. Pierce, FL in late March, Jungle delivers her crew to Portugal. Now we begin our next adventure in the Mediterranean Sea. First we'll enjoy Portugal. Bon dia!
Katie and the captain got some much needed rest. Thank goodness nobody follows this blog or I'd never live this down.
We did some fancy sail flying of our own. Don Mack showed me how to best use our spinaker pole to hold out the jib on a downwind run. Well done.
Here is Cisa from Germany flying their Cruising Chute - looking good. Unfortunately the skipper, Wolfgang, took a spill while tending to a rip in his main sail. He flew back yesterday to get treatment on some painful ribs. We all are wishing Wolfgang the best.
Hah ! It worked we are clearly in the lead. That is until I realized the starting line is back where all those boats are. Yikes!
We embark on the final leg of our Atlantic journey. I just dig writing the word embark. Our strategy is to be the first boat out of the harbor and never give up the lead.
