With Mindelo,Sao Vincente in the Cape Verdes 200 miles behind us, we are 1/10 the way there!  The first night was rough and tough, 2nd night still big seas but we both managed to get food and 4 hours sleep each.  Only seen 2 big ships and they both came within 1/4 mile of us.
Today is beautiful sunshine and of course the Atlantic swelll is there but more gentle. 
Seen lots of flying fish today they leap out of the water in front of us and curve their way behind us, some of them stay in the air for at least 50 yds, they're a beautiful irridescent blue colour.
