Hi All,

We haven't left yet! Mostly for the benefit of Wendy's family in North America who know a little less about our cruising life, I will explain. We have had glorious weather here, which normal sane people would think perfect for sailing. Unfortunately we had to wait for our liferaft to be serviced which took an age. That done, we had to wait for delivery of a solar panel to give us some power while on the move. They delivered the wrong one, so now we wait for the right one - hopefully tomorrow. Richard then needs to wire it in. But we have made hatch covers and mosquito protection and the runner beans are coming up and we are pretty ready to go soon. So of course it has started raining and looks set to continue this week! C'est la vie.

Dartmouth, where the boat is currently moored, is beautiful though. Will update when we finally leave.

Love,

RaW
