Not the Atlantic Trade Wind sailing we all dreamed of but a mixture of calms, 8\/9\u2019s very lumpy seas. We had to go south of Cape Verdes to try and catch some wind so the magic 25N 25W and turn right was never achieved.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em>The boat handled beautifully and we were always very happy and felt very safe on board. Caught lots of fish so we also ate very well.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em>On arrival in St Lucia, our problems started and have kept us preoccupied since then. Shoreside electrics blew out all our onboard electrics including fridge and charger. We also have an ongoing issue with the fuel injector pump that we replaced in Las Palmas. The engine happily surges on its own to 4500rpm, bit difficult when it happens approaching the berth in Rodney Bay at 9Knt. Things like this make you concentrate very hard. No damage due to fine skippering but adrenaline levels were very high.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em>Wendy and I are now alone on the boat after crew and mother left on 31st December. Chance to rest, relax and get the boat clean again. Can\u2019t believe what 3 weeks at sea and very salty water can do to your boat.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em>Anyway, I\u2019ll stop rambling and wish you all the very best in 2014 and we look forward to catching up with you all sometime in the future.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em>Lots of love and fond memories<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em>Ian, Wendy and Bumble<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IWupdate.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2932\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/the-longest-honeymoon-update\/iwupdate\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IWupdate.jpg?fit=960%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,720\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"I&amp;#038;Wupdate\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IWupdate.jpg?fit=960%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2932\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IWupdate-300x225.jpg?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"longest honeymoon update\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IWupdate.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IWupdate.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IWupdate.jpg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you enjoyed reading The Longest Honeymoon update you may like to read the related articles,\u00a0<a title=\"the longest honeymoon in history\" href=\"http:\/\/lovesail.com\/ls-news\/2013\/04\/longest-honeymoon-in-history\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Longest Honeymoon<\/a> and <a title=\"the longest honeymoon continues\" href=\"http:\/\/lovesail.com\/ls-news\/2013\/11\/the-longest-honeymoon-continues\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Longest Honeymoon Continues.<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"6028\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/crewing-events-autumn-2019\/logosmall-32\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/logosmall.png?fit=34%2C36&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"34,36\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"logosmall\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/logosmall.png?fit=34%2C36&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6028 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lovesail.com\/ls-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/logosmall.png?resize=34%2C36&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"sailing community\" width=\"34\" height=\"36\" \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovesail.com\">Lovesail<\/a> is an online dating and social networking site for sailors from all over the globe to meet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Longest Honeymoon Update &#8211;
