We are on our way again! After the nice island cruising in the beautiful
archipelago of the Azores it's time for some ocean sailing. And we've
been put to the test directly.
With a front chasing our heels we had anything but a clear night. No
moon, no stars just pitch black darkness. This means concentration and
anticipation. The level of chit chat goes down. And even the unstoppable
music remains silent.
Chris and Died, the newly arrived crew members are doing very well in
these conditions. The galley still produces excellent meals, we had a
beautiful circular rainbow right above us and yes. we almost caught our
first fish.
We are 630 miles from Lagos, doing 8+ knots with a winged out jib. Wind:
Westerly: 20 knots.
Position: 37*12.9N 32*38.5W
