Log

Made adjustments to self steering lines, whilst doing so I scrubbed servo rudder & dropped my last scrubbing brush over board. It was so calm I thought I could drop the mainsail & swim after it. – but no – the water is a bit cold. So I steered the yacht around. I found & recaptured the scrubbing brush. I returned my attention to the self steerer & there 4 ft down 10 ft stern was a 5ft shark. – it never showed on the surface.
