Skyelark of London - Day 6 at sea



Day 6 since we left Las Palmas and another beautiful sunny day in the Atlantic. Yesterday evening, as we where enjoying our sundowner and waiting for dinner,  a delicious maroccan chick pea prepared by Steve the chef of the day, we caught two nice Dorados. Nothing the team could not handle, as you can see on the picture, where our top fishermen, Dan an DJ are busy filetting the fish. A nice starter of thin sliced Dorado with soya and wasabi, was added to the dinner. Finally the main course was also topped with fried fish. What a feast!!

Later on we had a perfect night with a steady strong wind, and with the butterfly up all night, we made good progress with smooth Skyelark sailing.  So smooth that we just crossed the “1999 miles left to St. Lucia” line. It was of course celebrated with loud music on deck. 1999 by Prince.

Everybody knows our daily watch system, which is now an integrated part of our daily routines.

One of the daily routines is not a daily shower, but today the conditions was perfect for a saltwater deckshower on the forepeak in the sun and wind. Easy to get addicted to crossing the Atlantic.
