To the Dark Continent

Hello,

Its Dan (of Dan, Lise & Ben) I am just updating a few post that da Boags have sent.

Day one
11/01/2009
22:20:59 GMT
27° 10.43' N
17° 05.48' W

NE Winds 20 knots, Gusting to 25, great way to start off the trip covering almost 200 nm in a day, unfortunately left head window open, during one roll off irregular wave, flooded the entire space and lone occupant in a matter of seconds, Vicky would have been even less impressed if I's suggested shower wasn't wasted, have learned (the hard way) not to talk for the first few days into any of our longer trips. Slow day however for activites, Too rough to fish, kids doing well ......pulling out every one of the 100 plus toys and activiites to play in the pilot house, if they could only learn that putting aways is almost as fun (even if it's not), ya ok it's only a dream I have.....
