Mojomo arrives in Antigua tonight

.
With only 14 hours motoring in the whole trip apparently. Looks like Matt has finally got the hang of this sailing lark.

How long, do you think, before they sober up enough to tell us about it?

What's he going to do with all those jerry cans full of diesel then?
They probably added at least 24 hours to his passage

Probably keeping them to sell to a certain sadler owner going down Kylerea.

He was always difficult but now I think he will just be insufferable

wow thanks guys. ARC is las palmas to St lucia. Quite good fun, apart from the wall to wall drinking in bars till 4am and throwing each other in the pool, which isn't really my scene. As far as the saling goes, we are of handicapped so won't win anything, but the grudge match was against Boundless, mojomo sistership who was near us all the way, sometimes ahead. Second to last day i reported 10nmm nehind my trw position, turned AIS off, and last day i reported 40nm back, and i think they had a celebration and eased off, we whacked it to st lucia in the dark and they came in 2.5 hrs behind.
