After encountering 30-knot winds between Tenerife and Gran Canaria, the sailors turn back to the sheltered anchorage of Los Cristianos to wait for a safer weather window.16:48 The crew plans to leave the boat in Las Palmas for several weeks to return to France for the holidays.6:01

To assist with anchor inspections and underwater observation without diving, the sailor constructs an aquascope using a 60-cm length of 160-mm diameter PVC pipe and a circular piece of plexiglass.9:51 The assembly process involves sanding the pipe’s interior and the plexiglass edges, applying a silicone sealant to create a watertight bond, and attaching a handle and a GoPro mount.13:12 The device allows the user to inspect the seabed and anchor holding from the dinghy or deck.21:51 The crew intends to test their FOB HP anchor in Los Cristianos before continuing their transit to Las Palmas.3:30
