Left Virgin Gorda around 0700, beginning the passage to Bermuda. Weather is fine, and the wind has shifted a little eastwards, so we are getting a fair close reach and bowling along at around 6.5 knots. Settling into the watch routine remains a challenge at the start, since whoever is supposed to be off does not feel tired yet, so a bit of negotiation is required! Light dinner, and on to night routines again.....
