30 Days At Sea

Tradewind SailingI have been following the progress of young Australian Nick Jaffe as he sails single handed from Europe to Australia.

A very relieved Nick on his Contessa 26 “Constellation” has arrived in Barbados, 30 days after leaving the Canary Islands.

The first 10 days were dogged by light and variable winds and large uncomfortable cross swells before Nick hit the trade wind belt. It certainly sounded like Nicks stamina and patience were tested.

Nick has put a run down of the first half of the voyage on his Blog.
