James spent a few hours yesterday commissioning the water maker. Things got slightly fraught when the low pressure stage refused to seal and things got very wet in the engine bay, but once that was sorted, it was quite quick. With the engine running at motoring speed (2000rpm) we make 60lts per hour of sweet water. Nice. I can shower with impunity.

The children had opportunity to catch up on some schooling. Elizabeth has read the first Harry Potter book and did some of her homework. She's also been working on her maths whilst Matthew has been practising proper letter formation, drawing cartoon stories and learning to tell the time.

Now we are back in the marina and they are bored again. I'm off to do yet more provisioning so just time to share this morning's rather fine sunrise with you. We'll probably have an early night today as the swell was quite rolly last night so we didn't sleep fantastically, but that is something we'll need to get used to very soon, but at least we've confirmed we have our sea legs.
