SAA II Delivery - Day 8 14 April 2012

Hello All

Well it is Saturday and to be honest I do not have much to report today. Onboard it is as any other day and we are all still frantically sorting and packing, while trying to implement systems onboard that will make life easier in the  long run.

We are experiencing quite a strong WNW'ly wind of around 35 knots and a swell of about 3 meters slightly forward of the beam. Needless to say we are rolling slightly more and the non skid table covering has made its appearance, but it is nothing really and we are quite comfortable. We still have to see how she would behave in proper storm, but for now we will give her the time off since she will be seeing plenty of that in the next 30 years!

Again we have made very good progress and averaged around 14.5 knots. So while the going is good we are making hay while the sun shines as they say.

Enjoy your weekend and all thumbs up for the Stormers to beat the Crusaders today!!
