Had a good day today. The noon to noon run  was 136nm, pretty good as the Trades aren't full in yet. All are well and settling down to the routine of life onboard. I cooked yesterday, Rich today and Steve's turn tomorrow. We've started to defrost one of our 3kg bag of steaks, so Steve hasn't much scope to be creative with his cooking! We've had some good speeds out of the boat, surfing at 12kts at one point until by mutual agreement we put a stop to it. Tonight, we just have the working jib up with one roll in it, still getting about 6kts. All is well aboard Moonshiner, they are about 20nm west of us and have turned direct for Barbados. We will do SW for another 12 hours at least and see if the predicted ENE winds kick in.
'The Boyz' send their love to respective families.
