We are closing in on Faial now, just 200Nm left. We will probably arrive in Horta Saturday afternoon, hopefully before dark.
 
Yesterday was a dolphin day, they came by every few hours! No better company on your watch!
 
Today is yet another sunny day on the Ocean. We've had mostly clear skies during the crossing. The warmth from the sun is nothing near how it was in the tropics, now we're dressed up like polar expeditioners even in the middle of the day. We are supposed to enter a high pressure, maybe that will make a difference.
