Our position as at 08h00UTC this morning is:
25.37S
18.25W
The last 24 hours have kept us in the trades, besides the slightly lighter winds in the heat of the day on the few wind switches at about the same time, it is trades as normal.. As the day cools the breeze increases with nice late afternoon and night sailing.
The moon is in it's final stages with it only making a showing at around 03h00 UTC and only a sliver of it, so sailing at night is quite dark, especially since there is a lot of cloud cover at the moment so the clear star studded skies are rarely visible..(if they were, there would be plenty of light) .
Life aboard is very much a routine.. With us making sure we are sailing the boat as fast as we can in the right conditions 24/7.
Best to all,
Dale
