Wind has dropped a bit  over night but thankfully an area of cloud cover has reached us early afternnoon to hide us from the intense sunshine . According to our GPS we are just about witin next 20 miles the 1300 nm to go barrier! Still have our fishy friends following us, seem to be getting bigger each time we see them. Just spoke to Team Patience via satphone, even though only about 25 miles away they are experiencing very swirly winds and rain, quite a comparison to hear. Weather was meant to be getting lghter later in week but rather light today. If this is the light period the forecasters were predicting then hopefully as it arrived quicker it will pass quicker.
