Yesterday the forecasts looked better and our hope was raised again, maybe we will be able to leave Falmouth soon! Today they still look good. We have prepared Cantare and will leave the inner harbour of Port Pendennis this afternoon. Then we will fill our diesel tanks and just wait for the right moment to leave. The right moment though is difficult to spot. Maybe it will come this evening, this night or tomorrow. We check the weather charts all the time and discuss the matter with the other yachts. In Falmouth we are eight yachts ready to cross the Bay of Biscay. We all have different views on when the best time to leave is and of course the best time is not the same for all of us. Most of the yachts are bigger than Cantare and they will get over quicker, therefore the predicted weather will reach us differently depending on where we are in the bay. Add to this the uncertainty of the forecasts and you might understand how hard it is to decide when to leave. But we will leave soon! /Captain Ingerup
