180809 To Stornoway d8
Seventh day – very slow sailing in weak wind.
Have now done 138+144+166+163+166+146+99 nm.
We should have been in harbour by tomorrow afternoon/evening if we could support by engine.
It is not possible due to the broken gearbox and tomorrow afternoon the wind will increase from the east…
We will probably not reach the harbour until Sunday noon.
In spite these problems we have both food and water and can still charge the batteries.
