Somnium - Part 1, Feeling like Flotsam

Hello civilization, this is Somnium writing from the middle of the Ocean.

Since five days we have to get along with really low wind ranging between two and nine knots. We have been that much annoyed by the wind, that we are delighted now, if we get five knots of wind or a little more and sail above three knots SOG. If the wind speed is below four, even Somnium turned on the engine sometimes to move at least some miles, though we wanted to stay engine free as in leg one :(
As there is nothing we can do about it, we try to stay motivated and make the best out of the time. We already went swimming twice, have once in a while a movie night on a laptop in the cockpit beneath a marvellous starry sky and cook nice dinner. And it could be worse than floating in really hot temperatures, lots of sun and 29 degrees water temperature. In addition, we became experts in taking up and down of the sails quickly, because of the changing and low wind conditions.

As we definitely need more days than we wanted to, our supply of fresh food like fruits and veggies probably won't last until our arrival. We haven't been lucky on adding up our fresh food supply yet and didn't catch any fish yet. So we are still on count one, as we caught a tuna on leg one.
