Fig da Foz & Nazare

Howdy chums.

After a week in Leixoes we did the 65nm motor to Fig da Foz on a foggy, misty, flat calm day.

After a couple of days there waiting out the weather, we cracked on and motored down to Nazare. You'll note I'm using the word "motor" quite a bit still.... well, that's because there is simply no wind. The Portugese Trades just don't exist this year, so everyone is motoring.

Anyway, we'd pretty much had enough by 15nm out of Nazare so decided [.....]

Portugal (Viano do Castelo & Leixoes / Porto)

We're in Porto (at the Leixoes marina) and it's been a bit of a quiet few days since the last update.

It was a pretty dull day to be honest; not a lot happening on the water apart from a ridiculous number of crab pots the second we crossed the Spanish / Portugese border. Anyway, we motored the 35nm pretty quickly and pulled into Viano.


This has to have been my least [.....]

To sum up how bad the weather's been in 2015, we also had our first BBQ of the year. In August.


We also hooked up with our friends on Irreversible in Camarinhas.


After that, we split off with a couple [.....]

The last week or so...

So it's been a pretty packed last week (or so....) - we left Falmouth bright and early on a Wednesday morning and after a pretty crappy overnight sail, arrived in Roscanvel (NW France).


Roscanvel was a pretty nice place, although really, really, REALLY quiet. There were some nice sailing ships out & about in the Rade de Brest.

Anyways, our days were spent visiting the local Tabac (the only shop in town really) to stock up on baguettes, cheap wine and nectarines. All for [.....]
