Our position at 0600 local time

 

Friday was a lovely sunny and breezy day and we were able to sail the course we wanted without being hard on the wind; in fact a quieter spell had us flying the Code Zero for 3 hours. A large King Mackerel attached itself to our lure and the large fillets are intended for a Thai  fish curry – yesterday evening it was too rough to contemplate such cookery!

Around midnight we passed the 1000 miles since Beaufort mark and English Harbour is about 350 miles away.

 

All well if rather sleepy and shaken up by the constant bouncing around – we could be sailing faster but the motion in the seaway would be even more difficult!
