Well, Shearwater of Dee managed to get us from Poole to the Windies. Not very easy though. Broke the steering two cables off Cascais marina, trade winds didn't happen. Rudder broke and jammed 74 Nm E of Antigua. Drfted for three days until within twelve Nm of Guadalope when CROSSAGE picked up our Pan Pan and SNSM pulled us into Port Louis. Rudder fixed in Antigua (Commercial tow to English Harbour). Now in St. Marteen but with a dislocated wrist..........are we having fun yet?
