First night spent on our ocean passage to Madeira.

Speed changed from 5 to 8.8 knots and back down again, with wind changing from 12 to 22 knots.

We tried for the first time 4 hours on and 4 hours off, very long shift for a crew of two. decided to go back to 3 on and 3 off.

Good sail so far with Marita III following a few miles behind.
