Timshel - Cocos to Mauritius Day 8

Monday night is pizza night! A very grey and damp start to the day, just as well we are not navigating by sextant. Wind dropping too. Set cruising chute at lunchtime but if anything slower as wind continued to go down, very peaceful progress. Took down the chute at sunset, luckily more wind and sailing more upwind to get back to track, able to set all white sails. Last night and this morning able to speak to Misto on SSB - arranged to talk on a longer range channel. They have left Cocos and made excellent progress, 90 miles in 12 hours - must have got more wind than us, so they will be getting closer.
