Angra de Heroisim, Terceira, Azores

Half-way mark; Arrived at the Azores for a couple of days of downtime and a good nights rest (without shift at the helm). 

Freebooter has done well, weathering 2 storms of up to Force 10 winds. A few minor issues, which will be resolved, majorly wet weather, soaken clothes and a dire need to sleep, long shift

On the good side after reaching the more southerly latitudes, sunny days with over 25 degrees C, good windspeeds and we even tried some fishing. Lots of wildlife, from bluebottles to small and large dolphins and birds, even deep at sea. 

Angra is very scenic looking forward to exploring more of this very historical island.

More updates shortly
