Erasmos is almost halfway to the  Canary Islands.  Last night we passed Casablanca 90 miles to the east.  We debated about stopping into Ricks Bar for a drink, but it was to smokey.  The seas are moderately high with the swells in the 3-6 meter range and the wind gusting up to 27 knots.  We are making good progress averaging 5 knots under shortened sail.    Crew are healthy and doing well, sleep is not the easiest with the boat bouncing around but we are getting used to it.
