On to Tenerife

30 December 2017

Jan ten Dam reports:
“We are still under full sail. After our departure from Cascais we have been able to sail all the 500 nautical miles since and were making headway to Tenerife. When I am writing this (Saturday morning) we have 200 miles to go. We expect to arrive in the late afternoon in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. As we are getting more south the temperature is rising. It now about 20 degrees and also at night it is comfortable on deck. We have seen dolphins many times. Yesterday a big group gave away a show in front of the bow with jumps and flips. We even found a flying fish on deck. From the ‘Oosterschelde’ we all wish you Happy New Year!”
