The wind has died down considerably - 14 knots as opposed to 24 so the motion much kinder but of course our speed is down a bit too - 5.5 knots rather than 6.5 knots.  The day's run was 150.5 miles which is still impressive for Kelpie.
 
In other news we saw dolphins in the moonlight the night before last and the watch below could hear them talking to each other - it sounded a bit like starlings!
 
We passed the 500 mile point for this leg at breakfast time this morning and seriously murdered the Proclaimers' song whilst chomping on our honey nut loops.
