good morning,
yesterday was again a beautifull day and we had a quite night in which we needed to motor. During the night the sea state increased from nice and flat to sort of big waves now. No wind yet, but apparently there is some mighty blow behind us based on te size of the waves. Time will tell what we are gonna get and of course the weather file we will download soon gives a little bit of insight too ;-)
Nights are getting more and more humid and cold. We all start to wear warm clothes and a beanie during the night. I am thinking of getting extra thermals out my bag now. The tea and coffee helps you to stay warm. Looking forward to be kept warm by other means...
A funny detail...the toilet door is broken and we had to take it out completely. No more private dumping. Of course with just the 3 of us it is easy to pick a moment you are sort of alone. Reading an imaginary newspaper for about 45 minutes is however not very social now. The navigation unit and toilet are nicely aligned and we can discuss the course while visiting the toilet....was this in the brochure?
again, so far so good. About 900 miles to go to the Needles.
