Not quite the great circle route and not quite a straight line - on a line somewhere in between.....
 
Tilly Mint is half way there so we had a little party as the sun went down
 
I bring you carefully edited photographs of the real heros of our voyage who, around the clock, risk certain dark rings around the eyes to guide Tilly Mint on her path ever westward, and where we can, a bit southward too.
 
We've been playing with our sails too, the blade jib is poled out and goose winged with the main so we can achieve the sprinkling of south in our course. The sea is calmer tonight and hope springs eternal for a better night's sleep!
