Blue Pepper - day 6. 25/11

We have finally stopped our chase south seeking wind and today made our ‘turn’ broadly west to head down the trades towards the Caribbean. The wind is ideal and Blue Pepper is humming along happily (9.2 knots and 10.1 knots SOG as I write) and we expect to comfortably beat yesterday’s 172 miles by the morning.

Some chafe challenges needed attention on the Spinnaker sheets today - after 4 days aloft - and we keep ‘nearly’ catching fish.. but we will crack it!

Risotto for dinner tonight and a possible re-run of last night’s Name That Tune in the cockpit… :)
