DISASTER. Ran out of chocolate biscuits during the last night watch. Dee will be disciplined!!! We have never eaten so much and so well (apart from the Cassouilette when the weather was too bad to cook properly) because the authorities will confiscate fresh and frozen produce on arrival.
Thanks David and Trish at Gulf Harbour for weather updates and support.
All well on board.

The cabin of a small yacht is truly a wonderful thing; not only will it shelter you from a tempest, but from the other troubles in life, it is a safe retreat.
