We are now getting closer and with a bit of luck only two more nights at sea!!!
Last night was a clear night wit the exception of a couple of showers.  We have now been running under the same sail config for two days, poled out genoa and main with preventor. it is still too windy for parasailor but we shall see.
 
We have not seen another yacht for days but we can faintly see a sail ahead and I have just spoken to the other yacht on the VHF.  They are a large catemaran and expect to be in at similar time as us and are part of the ARC also.
 
No more flying fish on deck today, but we might have anoter go at fishing..
We still have fresh meat in the freezer.  We are eating much better than normal which is quite ironic....
So hopefully just anoher couple of days to go !!!!
