Episode 24

Atlantic Crossing.
We depart Las Palmas on our first ocean crossing for St Lucia.

Our final crew member, Laura, arrives and I do our final briefing before we slip the lines. Las Palmas does a fantastic send off for all the yachts in the ARC, the atmosphere and the tension in the air was just incredible. It’s almost impossible to not be at least a little emotional as you depart for the race start line along with 200 other yachts all anticipating spending approx 3 weeks at sea.

We crossed the start line under very light conditions and a choice:

1. Head south for Cape Verde with no wind and the motors on for 5 days
2. Head west direct for St Lucia and a nasty looking low pressure system

I chose option 2 as I hate motoring and we discussed that as soon as we felt we’d had enough of the upwind sailing, that we’d turn to the south and with unlimited weather forecasts from our Iridium Go we could keep an eye on the low pressure and turn south just when we needed to.

Now all we had to do was get into the swing of living together, enjoy the sailing and keep watch!
