Sunday 24th August

We decided that we would have one more long day of motoring to get us further along the coast and Philip and Paul bravely offered to get up at 3.15 am and they set off at 3.40 am.


When we emerged at 8.oo am the air was hot and the sea smooth. We were motoring at about 21 knots to conserve fuel on our way to Cartagena. This leg of the journey we saw whales, dolphins, flying fish and swordfish.

At about lunchtime the swell increased and we were heading into it. We arrived at 3.30 pm. We were tired but very relieved that from now on its just short hops with lots of play time.











Pre dinner drinks.
