Log

  • Sea unbelievably quick with breeze from NE, the birds are having a fine time, it is overcast with thin cloud.
  • Used long handled scrubber down sides of yacht.
  • Number 1 water tank empty now onto number 2
  • Compass check using "Commander" compass bearing binoculars that I suspect are the most accurate.
  • A group of black sea birds are sitting in the calm sea like ducks on a pond.
