Planning to leave Falmouth around 05.00 tomorrow morning.
Tom Saunt, a friend of Ollie, who sailed the Atlantic and South Pacific with Ollie, is joining us for the trip to the Scilly Isles and over to Cork. We were a bit worried with the self steering still not working, and me very likely to be sea sick at some time, and no use to man nor beast. 26 hours on the helm for Gail might be a bit much even for her.
I wasn't getting a compass reading on the self steering display, but having now re-connected a couple of wires, seem to have the reading, and still depth etc. But we need to re-configure the system again with a sea trial. We might try to do so when going out in the morning.
May be one day everything will work! Lots of pigs flying by here.
Hope all the instruments work as intended. have a good trip
