Another 150 miles covered on our day 3 log. Fortunately the rough sea and rain squalls of last night started to moderate in the morning.
It looks like we can stay on this latitude to go east for quite a few days.
Frequent rain squalls are making for some volatile moments but all under good control. The hydrovane is steering steadily with the wind, while we keep in the dry down below or in the companion way to look out.
 
During the day we had some beautiful hours of sunshine and the visit of two albatrosses.
it is now in the early hours of the 4th night, the sea is becoming comfortable and pleasant. Long may it last!
