November 1st

Good afternoon from Waxwing

Light variable winds so a busy morning trying all different sail combinations to keep us moving along towards Portimao Portugal 🇵🇹

A lot of shipping traffic to and from Gibraltar last night and today .

Later tonight or early tomorrow morning I will cross the TSS traffic separation zone ( 5 lane highway for ships going both ways ) SW of Cabo de Sao Vicente , I am always glad to get through them .

All good onboard , calm weather gives me a chance to organise and tidy everything.

overcast day today , definitely feel the temperature drop as I sail north .

Looking forward to seeing Portimao marina , might be there Wednesday? Hard to say with the light winds .

Wishing everyone a lovely week ahead .

Waxwing out 😊⛵️
