Captain Damian is loading all the supplies for Catatude's trip

All is good for a Friday 4-4-09 departure from LaRochelle France - the guys from Furuno come Friday to calibrate the autopilot at lunchtime and we leave directly after they are finished. Weather is looking good, little wind - possibly no wind. Definately the better way of things for escaping Biscay Bay. Our first stop will be wind dependant. But I will update you en-route regarding our first stop.
