Note from Betsy...

23october 2045. 

60 nm off the coast of Morocco  . We are 3 days at sea having left Gibraltar on a sunny Wednesday afternoon, passing through the pillars of Hercules ( Gibraltar and Monte Hacho  in no. Africa) an area Plato referred to as 'the edge of the unknown' -  entering the Atlantic at the fabled city of Tarifa. Our departure was memorable -wind on the nose, churning current, absolute bedlam with ships converging on the strait from every conceivable direction. But that is all behind us - we are mostly motor sailing in light breeze, and it has just begun to rain. All is well aboard ElGato - we are heading to Lanzarote first DTF just 300nm. Love to all.
