As the sun goes down at the end of our fourteenth day at sea, the last 24 hours we have seen, a great sunset, the rise of a new moon, generally the wind has been a steady 14 knots, during the early part of the night the skies were clear with many shooting stars. Later in the night and during the morning we had a number of squall clouds go over us, with wind gusting in the mid twenties and short sharp showers.
The squall clouds cleared by late morning and by midday we were experiencing one of the hottest days so far, relief came as the sails finally put the cockpit into shade around 4.00pm.
Around the same time we when below the 400 miles to St Lucia mark, some discussion was had that we need to adjust our ETA time to late on the 11th or early morning on the 12th.
This evening we have put Skyelark time back another hour, we are now 3 hours behind UK time.
Connie and Mike have just served us a great meal of the fish we caught yesterday, no fish caught today.
Overall another great day on Skyelark
