Some says that a horse could “smell” the barn and therefore trot faster as he is approaching home. Well noeluna must have some horse blood has she has decisively speed up her pace in the last 48 h..

Yesterday we were given the opportunity to see your latest comments on the blog. We are very proud to have such a diverse readership from a geographical point of view (go Li Ping!)   . In typical French fashion some of our “viewers” are making comments which are longer than the original text itself… i.e. the debate/the argument  is stronger than the original stance..Well I am sure that Beaumarchais will appreciate that but it puts undue pressure to some of our crew member which name starts with a D. If you guys want to start a “salon litteraire” I am all for that but outside night watch/cooking/cleaning/maneuvering and chart plotting time...

We were given a glimpse at some “adjusted time estimate” for all the multihull in the fleet knowing that each of us has a different rating. Well, once this is official , some will soon realize that our performance is not spectacular but still very decent. But I don’t want to say more as I got no idea how those adjusted time are compiled and so much can still change in the next 48 h.

Tonight is “home cooking night”. In true Singaporean fashion I have load of “AYAM brand” cans on board. And some of you will remember that Philippe was a very big shot for the AYAM brand company back in the 80 and 90’s all over Asia. And yes, to the big surprise of our Asian readers…AYAM is a French business, established in Asia for almost 150 years. Well all this to say that “Curry Tuna”-lah and ‘Laksa Lemak Tuna” –lah will be on our table tonight. All of you are welcome to join. Should happen around 14 20N and 58 1 W at around 2300 UTC.  If you come you cant  miss us… still not many boats around. And BYOC (Bring Your Own Chopsticks).

 

So long
