Third night spent on our ocean passage to Madeira.
A good night had by all, as we have now changed the watch times to 3 hours on 3 hours off. We both got a much better sleep and the 3 hours on was not to bad.
Speed averaged about 4.5 to 6.00 knots,with wind changing from 12 to 18 knots.
Good sail so far with Marita III following now about 15 - 20 miles behind us now.
We now have about 60 miles to go, and at our present speed of 5 to 5.5 knots, we hope to arrive in the early evening of today Tuesday 13 September 11.
I will post our arrival either by SSB or via WI-FI if we can get it.
