Last night was one of the longest we have had so far, the weather was very mild but both Paul and I were rowing zombies! Not sure if the two weeks with a max of an hour undisturbed sleep had caught up with us or the mild weather making it harder to concentrate but the night had some very long, tired and interesting shifts: I spent about 5 minutes looking for a cup of hot chocolate that didn’t exist and then decided I needed to open one of the hatches that we haven started using yet to get out a days worth of food. Having achieved this I was much happier, left the food on the deck and went back rowing! Paul said he fell asleep for about ten minutes and then woke up still holding the oars!

Today started very still but the wind has grown and is blowing gently in the right direction.

Paul is going to attach some photos to the blog tomorrow as don’t trust myself with reducing the quality so it uploads quickly.

That’s it for now and hope to have something to look at tomorrow.

Jim and Paul
