11th May

The diver promised for 6am didn't arrive. He was then coming at 9 and eventually arrived at 10. It took him less than a minute to disentangle the rope and then we were off. For the first hour we were in fog with visibility of a few hundred metres. When it cleared we had a strong wind but this time it was from behind. We decided to skip Cagliari and went across to Villasimius where we refuelled. At last we're making progress.
