OK I understand that the blog I “sent” yesterday may not have gone through?  Not sure why because I have just checked and it is in the sent box here not waiting in the outbox!
 
So what about today.  Well first thing is the pattern of slowing down at night but a  good run in day light was repeated we are now 155 NM closer to the WP.  However the wind has backed just a little and we are now running about 10 degrees above our best track (Great Circle) as we go into tonight.  We are just starting to see the change in the cloud to our NW of a Low which we hope will give us a change of wind direction in a day or two.
 
We are having a minor fight with the Generator at the moment and are waiting for some info on the installation.
 
As one or two of you will have heard you can not get Butane gas in Bermuda so we had to buy a Propane cylinder, regulator and some fittings.  As the last of our Butane ran out this afternoon we have just stent some time converting the system (we can put it back in the Azores!)
 
So on the whole a good day and a MIB for Roy ref his duties as mum and the evening meal.
 
Oh and as I am typing Flipper and his mates have just put on a show up at the bow with a great sunset behind
 
1126 NM to go!
