The multi leg, double handed race around the world in Class 40s has been an impressive race to watch. Hats off to the crews who have raced these small but potent machines through some of the most remote parts of the planet. And now we have a winner as the front runners arrived in Lorient on the west coast of France.

A productive day on the sailboat. The permanent solution to the bilge pump issue where I bypassed the old switch, and a temporary solution to the failed shore-power battery charger. I will have to work on the permanent battery charging solution. I need a flexible charger that works from plugged-in shore power, and the future solar array. Does anyone have any recommendations? Now it is Happy Hour in the sun of the cockpit with Cara. She is adjusting well to life on the boat. There are so many places for us to explore around the marina. She goes for walks and beach romps multiple times a day. But mostly, she is content to just hang out with us and bask in the sunlight. #sailboatrestoration #livingonasailboat
