Exody - Day 21- November 30th - Repeat !



Not much new to say today so here is an outline of our routine on board - we will shift Exody time another hour back today to UTC minus 4

EAT - breakfast at 10, lunch at 3, dinner at 8 - all local ship's time, dinner and lunch by rota so each crew only prepares two meals in four days. We have a daily bartender to attend to happy hour

SLEEP - we have adopted a simple two hours on watch , six hours off for the four of us and stuck to the same times - my three watches (originally designed to overlap the radio net slots) are 09.00-11.00 , 17.00 to 19.00 and 01.00 to 03.00 - so I get the sunset and moonrise but miss the dawn. The off watch are usually in bed by 21.00 and there is much napping during the day.

SAIL - we set the current sails three days ago so only requirement is regular chafe and rig checks, the Aries self-steering does all the hard work and needs only minor adjustment as the wind has been consistently out of the east.

REPEAT - hopefully for only 4/5 more days - 619 miles to run at noon UTC on 30th
