Becalmed last night, so very slow progress.  Lovely sunny day today but very little wind, just creeping along a 3 - 4 knots and slowly being headed.  I don't mind getting a bit of south in at this stage so that I am between two rhumb lines  -  one to my icegate at 40N 50W and the other my waypoint before my final approach at 40N 70W.  Anywhere between the two is good so that I can tack between the rhumb lines as appropriate.  Could do with some more wind, but it's coming.  I shall complain tomorrow that there is too much!  I am struggling to get past 30W, so that'll be a good milestone to have finally passed.  Gosh, it's a long way!
