It was too good to last. After several days of very
good progress we got becalmed yesterday. The wind died at daybreak and didn't
return until dusk, so we had all day rolling around in the swell. Not even a
little bit like a millpond!
Ali took the chance to go swimming, in 5km depth of
water. Scary. But no sharks this time. Here she is:
 As I write we're becalmed again, only about 35nm
short of our destination. Such is sailing.
