Hello all,

We've started the race in true Jersey fashion! This afternoon's schedule shows us taking more miles off the other boats. All the others are in an approximate NW-SE line behind us, with Bristol slightly in front of this line, but still behind us!

It's a glorious sunny, crisp day. We have around +25knots, often 30 knots of wind - currently W at the moment. So, heavyweight spinnaker is up and we are surfing down these hugh waves - woooohooooo!

We are making very good progress to get to Jersey. Keep your fingers crossed that the winds remain favourable.

I'm much better now, so you'll be getting regular updates again.

Lots of love
Tracey
