Tomorrow we are leaving Rockland. 3th July 2009.
David and I left Bev and Ted Cowan's house yesterday and are now living afloat again on Aros More. We enjoyed great hospitality from the Cowans and hope to be able to repay them when they one day sail across the Pond in their Schooner or even in their Endurance, which sits under cover in their back yard.
We are now ready to leave. We have done all the shopping we possibly can, includingbuying knitting wool and fishing tackle ( to be used when as the wind demands!) , and filled up with water and diesel. Now we just hope the forcast is correct and the wind will weer to S- SW which is the favourable wind for us. We hope to reach the Azores in 15-21 days time.
We need some sunshine and to get out on the ocean wave!
All the time here in Rockland the fog has been down........a very depressing Summer, so far.
