Skipper's log: Samantha Davies (Britain), skipper, Initiatives-Cœur (IMOCA)

Good morning all

Last night was pretty active! We passed La Palma with some hot gybes in 33 knots and up to almost 40 knots of wind accelerating to the coast of the island. As you can imagine it was quite lively with less emphasis on style for our Spanish night out! We were more shaken than damaged , but it was annoying to lose eveything that we’d won by our little "wipeout", but we have to try and learn everything we can! Now we’re out and the boat is tidy (but wet!) And we are getting some of the calories back that we spent during the night...

Have a good day!
