Euphoria - Log Day 4 – Alone at Sea



Dear Blog,

Routines are becoming more solid as we enter the second half of our first week aboard. Today, our lunch was inspired by the great Chicken Tortillas success yesterday. This time the Tortillas were served with anchovies, sardines, eggs and numerous vegetables. Success once again!

One particularly important routine is to download and analyze the fleet position file. Today, the whole crew was anxiously waiting for these results and expectations were high. They were also confirmed as it became clear that we have now moved up to a second place in our class. We had to remind ourselves that although we have succeeded quite well so far, there is still a long long way to go and many things will happen before we arrive in Saint Lucia.
This is the first night with no other boats in sight. Although we know there are other boats out there it is a special feeling to be completely on our own on this small vessel floating around in this huge ocean. And although we have some limited connections with the real world, we are in many ways completely reliant upon each other here aboard Euphoria.

Finally, no Ukulele today, we have had quite a rough ride so further practicing will have to wait until conditions become somewhat calmer. These days will come also.

The Skipper
