Speed 6.6 kts
for the day
918 miles to go. Hopefully we can keep going under sail until our "fuel safe" position about 500 miles out. ie we have enough fuel left to motor in if we hit a light airs patch in the Azores high. Great Sailing 24hrs with good seas and force F3-4 giving 7 kts prior to day break. Wind now well on beam and down to 8-9 kts so speed back to 6kts . As we have under a 1000 miles to go, sweep stake now in place for arrival eta. Galley Notes: Il Maestro Colini produced bellisimo Pesto Fuselli. To a man Il Tribulanti they cry Bene Bene Encore Encore! (Apologies for the dog Italian) Fishing Notes: - Last chance saloon for bloody Darcy. Either he pulls or Dixie Tricks gets a go. All well onboard Susan Ayu Crew (FONGs) |
