Real start
Actors, press, relatives of the original people on board the Beagle and many people of which we don’t know the relation to this project we had on our deck today. In spite of the feeling the ship’s staff had that some other organization took over the power on board the atmosphere was good what made to accept this unpleasant feeling.
The small vessels that sailed with us to the entrance of the bay had to return at the breakwater due to heavy seas. At the moment we are struggling to get forward against these waves, bound for Falmouth where the last passengers that do not join us to Tenerife will disembark the clipper.
