Morning all!
 
A fairly fast night, with boomed out headsail again. The Tacktick wind instrument gives up in the dark again...so I can only guess at night time wind speeds and direction, but I estimate these at 17 knots, 075 True, based on boat speed.
 
We have completed 123 miles since the gybe at midday yesterday,
 
It is still dark here at 0800 as I write, but we are looking forward to a bright sunny day again, as the night sky looks clear.
 
It remains a surprise, though why should it? that we have not seen another vessel since we overtook Pinta and Win2Win on the first night.  It's a big ocean. 1491 miles to go.
