We will pass through Trafalgar, Fitzroy, biscay, Plymouth and Solent. All predicting force 10 overnight tonight & we've been told to expect for worsening conditions later in the week.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes was excellent. Finishing off the night with a cocktail in the spinnaker bar while we check out Vigo on the web.
