We are getting well into the swing of things here. Life has a relaxed pace to it and we are plugging a long nicely under sail. We have a long way to go so just easing into it. Not much news apart from we caught a albacore tuna yesterday evening which made for nice sushi today. Just a nice 2 person fish. Will be good seared as teriaki tuna tomorrow.

It was a better night last night, we are trying out 4hour watches at a time - just to see if they are a bit easier on us. Seemed to work ok last night. We have a whole load of suicidal bananas which we keep finding on the back step of the boat ready to take the plunge. We will be on extra banana consuming duty over the next couple of days. A side of banana with everything!

The hour of day french lessons has commenced (Nick promtly fell asleep). Some of the stainless has been polished and some cushions fixed - so we are keeping busy.
