Exody - Day 364- World ARC Anniversary



Yes it is a year to the day and over 19,000 incredible miles since we set off for Colombia from St Lucia on 10th January 2015! We are definitely on the home straight now back in the South Atlantic with our current course for St Helena also pointing almost directly to St Lucia only 4,600 miles away.

Another good day's run of 185 miles in 20 knot winds and almost flat seas. Hugur has come back into range this evening six miles ahead - unusual to be so close to another rally boat after 800 miles and over four days. They invited us over for a movie night but we are not quite that close! Apart from that the ocean is empty - we have only seen four ships in as many days and no sea life other than flying fish and birds.

Marian transformed the overripe bananas into banana bread, I got stuck into a South African whodunnit and David investigated how we can optimise use of our technology. Exody hosted the radio net and otherwise life continues in the watch, eat, sleep routine.
