Life at sea goes on.
We still have NE'ly winds (with squalls from E) and are still running WSW
with our 2 poled-out jib sails.
Thank goodness for the Hydrovane (wind self-steering)! We had autopilot
problems from the outset and set the Hydrovane to work within 5 miles of
leaving Las Palmas. it has being doing a sterling job ever since. Looks
like an autopilot is on the list of things needed next - the usual story.
But, otherwise, nothing else seems to have broken yet. (Sorry, I shouldn't
have said that.)
We have just changed our ship's clocks - 1 hour back. tried fishing
yesterday, but no fresh fish for tea. Nothing much else to report. Come to
think of it nothing much has happened, and yet we are busy all the time.
Where does the time go?
152 miles in last 24 hours; 449 miles since we left Las Palmas; 2311 miles to go.
