Miss Liz II - Log Day 6 - First flying fish of the trip!



Noon position yesterday was 23 41 N, 29 24 W so just above the tropics (20 N). Weather grey and dull....what is going on here?

Trick of the day? The electronics came back on line, no reason why...although we believe that it may be because Jon had a shower...

The main news of the day is that we have passed the first 1000 NM at sea and our first date line so the ships clock went back one hour. A first for us. So, only a few more miles to go to St Lucia!I guess w ecan get at least another 7 curries in before we get there. I guess all of the yachts within a 100 NM no exactly where we are.

One heads still blocked....no one prepared to go over the side and poke through the hull fitting - where we expect the blockage to be. Expect it will be one of Rob's toys....

This morning we had two yachts within sight, our friend Maravilha is still with us - another Hanse. On deck we also found a flying fish, unfortunately dead, but the first one ever. Hopefully the rest will manage to avoid us for the rest of the journey.

Until tomorrow!
