Departed Camaret-Sur-Mer

 During our final night in Camaret, the wind picked up to near gale from the NE.

We were moored to the floating wave breaker and it got a bit lively at times. But having had mooring damages earlier on floating pontoons we brought good mooring ropes with strong shock absorbers.

This afternoon we cast off, motored accross to the Coop fuel dock and filled up our diesel tank. We have just over 200L in the maintank and 140L in jerry cans on deck.  We departed Camaret at 1430 Local time.

The weather is nice, sunny, and wind from the N about 10-15 knots. Sea state 1.5 - 2 meters. We are heading forCamarinas inthe west of Galicia/Spain. Distance is 370nm and we should be there Thursday afternoon.  The weatherforecast is for Northerly winds 10-15 knots dropping to 10 and later 5 knots as we get further south. We probably have to test out our spinnaker sail.  ;)

We are in a good spirit and look forward to getting south to warmer climate - although some say Sapin is in for a scorcher....
