    Barbate, we are now entering Smälland, Disney world, Valhalla for orca's. For us sailors, not so much. Luckily this time of the year the big tuna nets that are usually laid out here in front of the coast are not in the water. Which is great for us because this means we can sail around the 20m depth line.

    Thankfully the sail was very uneventful animal wise. No fish for us either unfortunately, but we will take it. It did look like we had a big one at one point, on our new fast trolling bait, we were unable to pull it in😭

    Sailing wise if was another downwind cruising sail and eventually we arrived a bit after dark. The most exciting part was going into the harbor as we surfed down a big wave into the harbor. A bit tricky, but no harm. We are ready to go through the Strait of Gibraltar!!
