We are 2nm off Dakar Harbour! We are cruising past small fishing boats and islands – and what a huge city! It keeps on growing out of the haze!

This has been a rough and tough 3 days but we are here with no breakages of people or boat! Very happy!

There’s a queue of tankers waiting for the port… let’s hope being small we can queue up! We are starting to dry out! It’s a sunny 29° with a water temperature of 27.8. Here we come Dakar, ready or not, for a Maiden full of happy girls to be here!
