Approaching Tuskar Rock

No sunbathing today

We had a busy night.  It was windy, mainly around 25.  We had the code 5 up which is a furling sail on a cable and the head came unlashed from the cable.  That means it doesn’t furl right. We did get it furled albeit poorly and then quickly down.  There was some good luck in that as it was over 25 at the time, and you can’t douse one of those like a spinnaker without a sock.  

The course changed to drop Fastnet and instead add a mark off Brest. The next leg is 200 nm upwind which is a lot simpler.
