Last leg of the ocean crossing

28 May 2018

We spent the weekend with a change of guest-crew and bringing the stores on board. Now, we are almost ready to go! The only thing that we had to do this morning was to bunker fuel. That was planned at 9.00 AM, so at 8:30 AM we sailed to the right place. But there was already another ship, so we had to wait a while. We dropped anchor and stayed stand-by. Two and a half hours later a spot opened up at the quay and we went there and now we are waiting for our truck with our fuel supply. We expect it to arrive any minute now. 
Once we have bunkered the fuel, we will continue with the final part of our ocean crossing! The weather forecasts are changing a lot the last few days and we will see how it goes. Today and tonight, a smooth wind from the south is predicted and the first miles towards the North should be pleasant. Time will tell…
