0700/18th

Position 2326 02051 Trip 1981 = 106/24 Falmouth is 1774 miles away so the GPS shows we've sailed about 200 miles further to get here, including up the Tagus. This is sailing day 17 of 114 or so.

There's a tight little low forming over the Cape Verdes - at current rate of progress we'll be just behind it. But it seems there are southerlies to the south of it so we may be shaken out of this gentle downwind torpor.

Could someone please tell me where to look for the centre of our galaxy - the nearest constellation would do. Thanks.
