We got away yesterday at 11am UTC (7am local time) we are using UTC from
now on as it makes life easier! We started off heading further easterly than we
thought we would be able to which was great but have gradually headed more NE as
the wind changes. The wind speed is a little variable and the sea lumpy at
times, we are doing shifts of 3 hours on 6 off, though none of us have slept
very well so far we are just getting used to the shifts etc. In the night we saw
the light of another sailing boat and Steve made contact on the VHF, they are
heading for the Azores as well but are faster than us and don't have an SSB so
we wont be in contact for long! We have also seen a ship this morning.
