Its Friday. I only know that because my watch says its
Friday. It seems that everyday since we left Cape Verde has become the same and
rolled into one. Monday afternoon to Friday morning all the same. Flat seas and
no wind.
Kyle was right when he told me that at 6 nautical miles
per hour you must not look over your shoulder as you will see yesterday trying
to overtake you.
We are now one third of the way across the Atlantic to
St Maarten and it is clear that it is going to take more than 12 days to get
there.
We have had two rain squalls during the 2 to 6 am shifts
which are dramatic, hard and fast and they disappear almost as fast as they
arrived. It does, however, cool down the air. Apart from that, it seems that we
have not seen anything except blue sky and blue seas for days.
Maybe it is time for a nap to help the day pass
by.
