Hello Everyone, 

We have all had a nice relaxing Sunday without any particular developments. Music in the cockpit, of course.

The clothes washing frenzy of yesterday has turned out to be a drying nightmare. Some items still feel as if they just came from the spin dryer, having hung on the rails for 2 days now! Clothes washing is now a bit of a no-no.

Our little bird stayed the night in the saloon on a shelf and took his leave around breakfast time. We have had several sightings of dolphins very close to the yacht, playing their high speed games around the bow.  We all enjoyed several bursts of play and it's funny how quickly they appear and disappear.

Our biggest problem is that the winds keep changing and forcing us south, technically away from our destination, but also away from unfavourable weather expected near our original route plan. So, the detour, which will slow us down, will actually be beneficial overall, in spite of any delay.

Right now, the boat is being readied for the night ahead. Which is a good moment to wish you all Goodnight

from The Hoff, Charlotte, Martin, Quentin, Michael (Beer) and Mogul..... The Knightriders
