At shortly after 0700 we started preparing MaRe for her Big Blue.

The Big Blue brought in average 50 + % in SOG increase. That’s what I wanted because this speed is needed to arrive around noon.

Now we have an ETA of 11:20 – 11:30. The point is not the minutes but the height of the sun to see bommies or other obstacles in the water. With Boh on the bow looking for bommies, I can stear MaRe safely through the entry passage and find a good anchor spot.

Sailing this morning was incredibly comfortable, so Boh and I had a long after-breakfast conversation. We stopped because I wanted to upload this and prepare every thing for the arrival.

I’m curious about the number of boats being there.

8.93 NM until the WPT “Minerva approach”
