John and mark cooked a spagetty B dinner and it was
very tasty and we had a great laugh over dinner,
20.10 hrs we had travelled 205 miles in 24
hours.
We were all exhausted , lack of sleep catching up
on everyone. Skipper sleped on deck again and did not wake till
daybreak.
08.00 hrs, we had travelled 103 miles in 12 hours
under spinniker only.
09.00 hrs we changed the clocks 1
hour,
12.00 hrs Mark caught our first fish, which
was quickly cleaned and cooked for lunch.
The weather was beautifull and very warm, but we
are now in the tropics, so it should be.and the sailing conditions were just
perfect.
Later rhe skipper prepared roast stuffed pork
steaks for dinner.
18.00 hrs we had reached half way, so we had to
have a bottle of CHAMPAIGNE to celebrate the occasion
19.00 hrs ( local time) we covered 203 miles in the
last 24hrs
