Third time lucky

The omens are looking good - the repair to the stern valve is sound, we're transformed Kika from workshop back into cruising yacht, I had hot shower for the first time since the storm and hurricane Epsilon is set to decrease into a tropical storm and track south-westerly. We still have the rapidly ripening bananas onboard, but we're not leaving on a Friday.

Assuming all goes well today and we finally set off for the Caribbean, a good way to track our progress is through the map. Information on using the map is available is here.
