Welcome to our sail blog. We are a Norwegian married/retired couple making our dream come true on this 2 year long sail voyage. We would like to share our experiences with you and will try to update this blog as often as possible.

Time to leave Porto Santo
we have been at anchor for nearly a month and it's time to leave. There are many yachts this year going south from the Iberian peninsular and most of them sail via Madeira. probably because of fear of being attacked by Orcas.
So ports are very busy and finding a free space on a pontoon in marinas is difficult.
We are on a waiting list in Funchal, but we have a berth reserved for us at Quinta do Lorde marina, just east of the port of Canical, both located on the eastern tip of Madeira. will be nice to do our laundry, clean the boat inside and outside. Top up batteries.

Bon voyage - from time to time I will monitor the frequencies. And be “good” to the batteries of VIKING !!!!!!!
29Oct1730ZTime : Nothing heard on 14045 Khz/CW.

I hope that everything is allright at "La Marina de Las Coloradas".
Best 73 and see you later.
