Today we reached the halfway mark in the longest passage of the trip. We were expecting the lack of wind at the start of this leg but not the swell and strong winds we have had in the last few days. Life on board is continuing with Mark playing chess with Oscar from Camelot, a move at a time on the daily radio nets. The sunshine and smooth seas have been absent, but so has the expected boredom! The second half should be faster!
