Yesterday the rigger finished his jobs. He also closed part of the hatch of the anchor locker. On the front the hatch was completely open, meaning that every time we had a serious wave over, the anchor locker was filled with water in a split second. The self draining holes aren't big enough to let it all out in time for the next wave so over time the bilge got filled also :-o
In the mean time, Rutger and I got to tick off a lot of jobs from 'the list' and cleaned the boat inside out and now we're all set for sailing again.
So today we'll leave Lanzarote and sail over to Fuerteventura to hop down the East coast. The wind is West so that will give us some nice and sheltered anchorages. In a few days the trade winds will be back and then we'll hop over to Gran Canaria.
It will be daysails mostly with also time to snorkel. There are some nice reefs out here according to the pilot book :-)
