Hi  Everybody,
 
After the disappointment of losing the mainsail Saturday evening we then inadvertently switched the batteries off and when they came on again the Raymarine navigation computer would not start up.
 
After a few anxious hours trying to fix it Ian consulted out technical guru Mike who had the fix in minutes  off the internet for us . Well done Mike.
 
We then spent a few uncomfortable hours in an unpredicted storm which rose to Gale 9 at times. Fortunately by nightfall it had decreased to a more manageable F5/6.
 
Had a reasonable night, a bit more shipping about now and sun up this morning. Now 150 miles SW of Ushant
