Ed arrived yesterday and the three of us departed
this morning at 10 oclock. We motor sailed east through the Canal de Faial which
is the narrow gap between Faial and Pico and there was quite a swell running
creating an uncomfortable sea. This led to a little bit of seasickness but
they've found their sea legs now and all are well on board. Tacked up the east
coast of faial and currently motorsailing passed Graciosa into a light northerly
breeze; looking forward to the wind backing to the SW some time tomorrow. Local
meatballs in a tomato sauce went down well, everyone ravenous. Hi to everyone at
home and TWH and thanks for the message Andy Howie, I finally read it on
sat phone a couple of days ago!
