Another good day of favourable winds!  The wind is mainly north westerly at around 17kts (according to our instruments that never read above 20kts!).  We are double reefed with the self tacking jib and have been sailing all night at 8kts over the ground along the great circle route to the Azores.  I cooked curry last night and it is Simon’s turn in the galley this evening.
