Piccolo moves on in a direct route and under
sail. With winds gusting 30knts and a steady 15-20 knts we should be home
for supper.
Onboard activity has been quietish with the choppy
seas and grey skies keeping crew in beds with their books and a fair amount of
'checking the back of the eyelids' going on. Food has been good and
Katie is being persuaded to work her way through the rivita she requested and
give the chocolate a break. Heidi did her best to lose one of her
fingers to the fishes but Mat made a dashing rescue and alas the fishes went
hungry. Mat then showed off his first aid skills with the assistance of a
first aid kit. Sam it appears hasn't done anything lazy so and so.
Dolphins have been a plenty and Katie saw a whale on her watch and an
exhausted turtle was seen battling the waves.
Mat is chef for the day and has talked a good menu
which the crew are ready to show their appreciation for. Tomorrow is bank
holiday which we are all looking forward to as well as the four day
week.
