We are being pushed north by the ENE to NE winds and are now half way to
Bermuda! However, during the night, we did get a lift, and started to sail
towards Ponta Delgada at last. Up to now, we have had winds over 20 knots
and rough seas, and squally rain showers with winds of up to 30 knots plus.
Today however, we have a steady ENE at 20 knots, small fluffy white clouds,
blue sea and sky and the sun is shining brightly.
We are all tired after the heavy weather, but morale is high, the boat is
behaving superbly, and we are well on our way. We haven't seen anything
exciting as yet - five ships, one small pod of dolphins and a few ocean
birds we can't identify yet.
We haven't been able to post daily due to power problems with the laptop,
but we seem to be back up and running now. Will try to post again, but
probably every other day, not daily.
