Hello from the Ceilidh “Book Club”, at one point to day all 3 crew off
watch were reading, we may need some more books come the Azores
Crew would also like some e-mails from home!
Have had a rather windy day and as we can not use the 3rd reef in the main
we have been under just the jib (still doing 6 – 7 Knots) since last night,
rather wet getting the main down. Wind and sea state (Rough) just starting
to drop so we hope that we will be back under both sails later or by first
light.
We are still being pushed a little north but as wind is starting to veer
maybe we will be heading straight east tomorrow.
Did have one minor panic today when water came in round the hatch and tried
to get this computer as well.
We have covered 160 NM again today but only reduced the distance to the WP
by 141 NM. However we are well over half way, The Azores are closer than
Bermuda, but closest land in Newfoundland!
Pancakes for breakfast, fresh bread during the day and Pizza and salad for
dinner.
If there are two blogs for today its because the PC crashed trying to send
the first and this is the second time I have typed
this! |
