this is now 5th day of sailing. Pretty good
as this is an area when people tend to be motoring. So apart from feeding
the generator, we have not used much fuel.
We all had a treat last night - Showers....
now we know that we are making good progress and feel happy that our
watersupplies should be ok despite watermaker not working.
We have had 4 nights at sea - 2 more to go so
70% there.
We are sailing nicely at the moment and have Bali
Blue very close by. We have VHF contact with about 3 yachts.
It seems like Wednesday morning, which is our ETA
in Galapagos, will be mass entry day for BWR yachts.
Tom has now started baking bread as we have run out
of the shop stuff, but I do have something hidden away in case it does not work
out :-)
Last night was a beautiful night with lots of
stars.
A Booby ( a large brown bird) slept on the
front of the boat, amazing how they can hold on.
I did not try fising yesterday as it was a bit
rough but will try today and we really fancy fish for
dinner..
