Gibraltar ahead of us

Here we are, approaching to Gibraltar after 16 days of Ocean: tonight we should pass the Hercules's Columns and enter into the Mare Nostrum.

Today Aeolus and Neptune gave us a "Mediterranean" day: a blue, pure sky, a flat sea and a gentle breeze. It was perfect, we needed a little rest after this tiring delivery. For the first day since we left St Marteen, we stayed outside when we finished our watches, enjoying the "dolce far niente" and the sun.

In the last post we said that Cape Arrow would not have been ranked among the "most easy deliveries" ' top 10. Well, that's definitely true, but she surely wins the gold medal for the "Greenest Atlantic delivery ever"! 

In fact during these 4,000 miles we used only 300 lt of fuel, and just for generators!!

The beauty and the privilege about sailing is that you can go anywhere you want just benefiting of Nature's gift: the wind. 

Cape Arrow crossed the Atlantic in her way back home just sailing, enjoying - sometimes suffering! - every single wind breath. 

Enjoying the silence full of noise that only the sea and wind can offer..

  

See you soon in Med!
