Not much to report today. Reece did not catch a fish yesterday and we did not do so well on the daily distance sailed with only 155nm from noon to noon compared with 180nm the day before. The wind died down last night and we ended up motoring for a while. Always a lot slower than sailing.

Martin made a variation on hos famous chicken soup,Thai chicken soup, absolutely a winner, with home baked bread Watched a movie and then into the night watch. Not another ship near us. The closest about 50nm away. We are just about midway between Madeira and the Mahgreb desert in Moroco.

This morning Reece is practising knots, Martin catching up on sleep, and I am just pottering around, doing general maintenance.
