Behind you Toney


I don´t know what Tony is looking at but I do know that behind him is the northern most point of the African continent, Ceuta. It was a beautiful days sail today across the straits of Gibraltar. Our friends the gray Mediterranean dolphins decided to come by and show us how it was done. The plays in out bow wave for a while and then took of in search of other adoring humanoids. Funny how grown hardy men can turn into squealing little kids at the site of one of these guys. Got quite fresh out there blowing a force 7. We put three reefs in the sail and shot across, everybody teatherd in and safe. On Monday we are off up the coast to Portugal. Our mission is to play in some heavy tidal areas. How dose sailing backward in a 42 footer sound too you. I will let you know but it sounds fun too me.
