Well that's not it, but I did find out that we could make toast by plugging the toaster into the heavy duty inverter that Gavin, the previous owner had installed 😁.
However, back to the cunning plan, which is to set off tomorrow afternoon for Madeira.
We have a few jobs to finish off in the morning. Then we'll head over to the Marina to top up our water and fuel tanks and then we'll head off.
You thought we were going to the Azores didn't you!?
Well we are (I hope) but the weather system and winds between here and the Azores are all to cock and a direct route to the Azores from here, just now, would mean we'd face a large area of very light winds followed by winds directly on the nose. However, we should have a pleasant sail to Madeira where we can wait a while for more normal weather to kick in, which should provide a close reach (wind just slightly from in front) up to the Azores. We should be there in 5 days.
That's the plan anyway. What could possibly go wrong? Come back in a few days to find out! ☺️
