21 st June (shortest night here)

No photos and not much happened.  Humidity 90% so didnt attempt to glue anything. (epoxy doesnt like humidity)  Spent some time faring  plywood and preparing for next gluing session.

Had nice chat to Glen from Terciera (Azores) who is also planning to build a Setka A for the challenge in 2025.  I understand he has already taken part in the Jester Challenge and planning to do it again before the Setka challenge.  Wow.  Busy sailor.  I offered to give  him my mould for the keel and he is maybe planning to sail here to pick it up.  Would be great to meet up and share ideas and experiences.  Really nice to know there is another boat from the Azores planning to do the Atlantic Challenge considering we have to cross almost half the Atlantic just to get to the start.  For me the most difficult challenge is getting back to the Azores from the Caribbean.  I have some sailing experience (26 Atlantic crossings -North and South -plus some Indian Ocean stuff) but havnt been sailing for many years and body warranty expired a long time ago.

As long as Im still moving I will continue.😅
