If it wasn't for the weather we would have been ready to leave. The genoa needs to be hoisted but that will take less than 30 minutes in calm conditions. An underwater camera shows the engine intakes covered with marine growth but they both started and cooling water circulated. We won't be leaving for a few days as strong southerlies are forecast. We're told that this brings clinging red Saharan sand that gets everywhere. We'll try and be prepared. So time for a few minor jobs and a long walk. In the evening it was marina happy hour in the bar with about 40 other sailors, and then back to the boat for a couple more episodes of GofT.
