BLOG 15 - Cleanliness is Next to Godliness

It’s still calm, so there’s a lot of cleaning going on. We have a five-day rota: dishes and waste management; cabin and decks, and check/empty bilges; heads, shower, and sink; and cooking. If the wind doesn’t pick up, we are in danger of wearing a hole through the decks (or running out of cleaning products).

It’s been very hot, and Bimini Cricket has come into his own, sheltering us from the sun. While helming, it is hard to keep in the shade.

As I write, something has happened on deck, but it will have to wait for tomorrow’s blog.

Still no fish, but the wind is picking up. We should be turning right, tonight, leaving Africa behind, and heading directly towards Saint Lucia.

That’ll do
