A fairly boisterous night but a quieter day in the main with lighter winds. Still overcast with hazy sun. Noon to noon distance run was 150nm and we passed the point where we are a quarter of the way across. More reading, cockpit conversation and listening to music helped another pleasant day pass quickly. The only thing of note spotted today was a brown bird skitting across the waves and circling the boat. We identified this as  a Leach's Petrel. 1618miles to go.
