Aislig Bheag - Log day 6- We will sail 500 miles and sail 500 miles again just to be the ones that sail 1000 miles to be stuck in the middle of an ocean



Well we passed the 1000 mile mark, that’s nautical miles at 9:17 this morning. That’s after a frustrating night of light winds and big swells. We spent the morning taking down sails and putting up downwind sails and for a while we put a spurt on but that was more due to squalls going through. It’s a lot hotter sea temperature 25.7 C and at least we can do a bit of sunbathing waiting for the next squall. Eilidh spotted something orange in the water and we diverted to investigate. Thankfully it was just a plastic container. Skipper caused a bit of amusement doing a fancy dance early this morning but he was only waiting for Duncan to finish putting his make up on in the loo.
 
After lunch we had a lovely, impromptu crew sing-song. Videos to come at a later date!
