Training
Challenger 2 slipped lines shortly after 1100 yesterday for a training sail to complete MOB & emergency steering drills in slightly more clement conditions than they had back in the UK last month. They then picked up a mooring buoy in Falmouth Harbour for some more cheerful activities of visiting the rocking Shirley Heights, swimming and generally soaking up the Caribbean.
