Widago - Bermuda-Azores Day 5: hurts my motor to go so slow



Almost becalmed out here, just about 1200nm from Horta. The parasailor did the best it could in very light winds of 9-10kts true. By 9pm last night, we decided it was too light and variable to keep sailing, so we fired up the engine. This is great because now we have a seemingly endless supply of scalding hot water. Unfortunately, this means I really don't have a good excuse not to shower...
The past two evenings during sundowners, we have had some lovely guests visit. It's incredible that in this vast expanse, these pods find us for some sunset surfing. Once we get land-based internet, I'll put some more pictures/videos up.
Weather forecast has us motoring for awhile. Following seas are gently pushing us along with broad smooth 8-10 ft rollers. Still no luck on the fishing front, but we have our fingers crossed.
