Twice Eleven - Day 6 Settling in



For those of you who don't know all of us, our crew consists of David, Tamsin, Bob and Andrew. We've been trying to get to St Lucia for nearly a week now and we still have a very long way to go; our eta varies from mid December to mid January depending on the wind strength. Although the winds have been light and not necessarily from the right direction it has meant that we have had a very gentle start to the trip, which is great. Andrew remarked that it was just like sailing in the Solent at times. The highlights so far have been Bob's fishing (two very decent Mahi Mahi so far, which were delicious), seeing shooting stars and the milky way so clearly, hundreds of dolphins playing around us for about half an hour, sunshine, and bacon and egg sandwiches all round for breakfast when we finally turned west, set up our down wind rig and started to make a decent speed in the right direction.
