James:
Helming at night, I got thumped on the chest and thought it was yet another flying fish. Carlos had seen it in the air coming at me; in fact it was a squid about 20cm long, with big eyes. Flying squid?
 
Paul:
Sunshine and strong winds was the order of the day. Compared to last night a fairly uneventful night and in the morning goo d wiinds continued giving us 174.7nm covered at an average speed of 7.3 knots.
