Andrea made bacon sandwiches for breakfast and got
another dolphin show as a reward. This time there were a
dozen "rather pretty speckled mummy and baby dolphins".
We are heading further south, not just to "go south
until the butter melts" but because the gribs say there will be problems with
the wind further north.
We have a new surfing speed record, 19 knots.
This was down a big roller in only 22 knots of wind, which meant the spinnaker
collapsed, but being a Parasailor it reinflated straight away without stressing
the material.
Here are some snaps Ian took of the
start.
