Dear All,

We have just reconfigurd our satellite settings and this is a final comms
test before we sail at 1000 UTC for a 1300 UTC start on Sunday.

Currently loading 35 days supplies,completing final yacht checks and
continuing navigation plannng - looks like it could be a long passage with
light airs including trade winds which appear not fully established yet.
<Tactics Removed>

Temperature a rather hot and sticky 25C with little wind and clear skies -
I guess rather different from UK! Now off sailing for crew training.

In addition to our blog (http://blog.mailasail.com/starcross) our position
will be available from our on board tracker which updates every 6 hours at
www.worldcruising.com/arc "fleet viewer". Please pass on as appropriate -
I have lost many email addresses in changing phones and computers.

Best wishes, Ross
