Costa dels Pins to Portocolom, Spain

William Borowski

William Borowski - French fries with breakfast? Man no Spaniards live close to the edge lol.  Nadal was one of the best to ever play and a great ambassador for the sport. He deserves that check and dinghy. Trying to learn to interpret data. Looking at the weather map from your last journey it appears as though you were able to run close haul, and close reach for the entire trip. That course with those winds says “go baby go“!
