Hello
all,
We've
started the race in true Jersey fashion! This afternoon's schedule
shows us taking more miles off the other boats. All the others are
in an approximate NW-SE line behind us, with Bristol slightly in
front of this line, but still behind us!
It's a glorious sunny, crisp day. We have around +25knots, often
30 knots of wind - currently W at the moment. So, heavyweight spinnaker
is up and we are surfing down these hugh waves - woooohooooo!
We
are making very good progress to get to Jersey. Keep your fingers
crossed that the winds remain favourable.
I'm
much better now, so you'll be getting regular updates again.
Lots
of love
Tracey
