The weather eased on Monday, but we've still managed
reasonable runs and are now south of Ireland with around 300nm to home. On
monday a small Petrel (black, white rump - British Storm Petrel?) circled the
boat, and we were still joined by shearwaters. Last night we sailed onto
the continental shelf - from a depth of thousands of meters to hundreds,
accompanied by the need to watch for the inevitable fisherman working
the edge, mostly Spanish.
