Another quick one before a nice leap to morocco, currently residing up the Guadiana river, a place lots of people come and never leave ! But here is a mix from the last few stops most recent first !
Shout out to Linda, who hopefully isn’t sat at work looking at this 🙂
I spent most the trip up the river sitting on the cross trees up the mast
Just a few photos to share leaving for a 60 mile stretch tomorrow morn going to race with some of out neighbour boats shame the wind will be so light enjoy !! 
So we have been forced to stay in peniche for two weeks due to a lovely storm out in the big wet stuff! It’s not all bad news we may have found one of the only places the wind was off shore, so we have surfed a whole lot recently, Meggie has been putting in the hours and she can now stand up 🙂 
As well as this the surfing world tour happened to be stopping by to see us !
Here is some bald man I saw
We leave tomorrow heading further down the coast hoping to score some quiet reefs along the way fingers crossed ! I was going to put some pictures up of the stormy windy days but nobody wants To see that and will continue the illusion that it is sunny every day ! 😉
Hey guys fab pictures glad your having fun x
For the past week we have been taking our time drifting down the coast like sea gypsies stopping in different towns and beaches, looking for surf breaks amidst some pretty amazing backdrops 
And as always there is a rather lovely sunset
Put the old light wind jenny out yesterday to get us going abit!
Here’s a few from the last port
And as we make our way down we have been getting visited by some pretty thirsty locals
So we hung our trusty net 🙂 today we sail further In very light winds and blazing sunshine, with promise of some swell coming in hopefully catch up with it In super tubos
PEACE
You are all the best, so proud, so glad you made it, phew now I can relax lol. Great stuff 🙂 x
4 nights and 5 days later, we arrive in bayone putting the bay of biscay to our stern, let’s some it up! Long stary nights, near gales, huge swells, wales, dolphins, glowing dolphins in phosphorescence, sick, pooping in buckets, broken bits and some unforgettable feelings and sights the list could go On I say this smiling as it’s only the begining! 
This being the view as I type 🙂 
And here are you few snap shots coming into Spain, I’ll have to figure out how to get the other photos from other cameras! More to follow
Here is one of meg in the early hours of the morning
Thanks to everyone who wished us good luck! And stay tuned for more
Hi guys you looked fabulous as you left our port of falmouth Bon voyage !
The time has finally arrived! After almost a year of preparation, blood sweat and tears, Avocet is sea-worthy.
Joey has plotted our course, heading for Finisterre, our first port of call will be Beyone in Northern Spain.
The forepeak has been turned into something of a surf shop, with 6 boards in total…
Just a stop off at the fuel barge, notify the coastguard of our course.. And we will be on our way. Stay tuned!
After a few busy days of the boat earning money and other not so fun bits and bobs we went out this evening to watch the red arrows, we found ourselves a pretty good spot up the river and got amongst the smoke and noise for an awesome display, the clouds with the sun made from some pretty epic pictures !
