Christine's Atlantic Circuit

We have now been sailing with the genniker up for the past 18 hours. Still flat seas, gentle breeze and good progress in pretty much the right direction. As I write our VMG ( velocity made good) towards St Lucia is 5.8 Knots.

Sailing doesn't get much better than this.

Trusty genniker .

Blue skies and scattered clouds
