All is quiet as the 8-11 watch digs in. Off-watchers sleeping or reading. Big news today, our noon-noon distance traveled was 210 nautical miles. That, as Bill Murray said, was a pretty good day. Had great veggie cassarole for dinner then Jackie baked homemade banana bread, for breakfast. Smells great in here. Winds calmed down to 15-17, seas also calmer. Night all.

Great sailing, it appears that you’re averaging 225 mi/day, which would put you in Faial in under 9 days, is that right?! Wow! (What is the speedo – VOG difference?)
Too bad no fishing, but seabirds are really not good eating 😉 (nor bottle nosed dolphin for that matter!)
Hope the wind holds up. (Tell Cam that a North Atlantic swim at 9 it’s is not a great idea 😉
Sounds like you’re trying to use up those bananas, sorry Jackie, I have no recepies to offer ;))
Best wishes to all
