Nisida south of Guadeloupe

Latest from Peter. My panic this morning that they would get becalmed on the west of the island was unfounded - but clearly it's been tricky since. They were doing over 11 knots at one point so it also must have been fun at times.


Agonisingly slow here at S end of Guadaloupe. Going a bit better now, but I don't expect to get round Desirade before about 9pm. After that we have a 95M reach to Barbuda, a 40M reach to Redonda, then a 40M beat to the finish. ETA sometime tomorrow evening.

Saw Isis earlier but everyone seems to have split here and we can't see anyone; no doubt we'll all meet again at Desirade. It's been hard work today, beating into F5-6 - hence not much comms. Hope it's fun watching...
