After a relatively rough night with up to 29kts of winds and some fun surfs, today was really nice and enjoyable. Exactly like what we were told sailing the tradewinds was: 15-20kts, reasonable swell, warm and sunny. We put the code 0 back on and went wing on wing. Very comfortable. Not sure we will break a record, but should get 7kts average and close to 170 miles today.
Uneventful day and everyone got some rest. As usual, amazing lunch and dinner - still incredible how the stability of a catamaran and all the appliances we have on board allow in terms of food! Fresh bread pretty much every other day as well as yogurts. Cannot detail the main courses, too long! Only glitch, we lost a few of the eggs. Storage was not right and we will need to review this.
Evening activity has been playing Tarot for a few nights. We are counting points but not converted into watch minutes.... yet! And just as everything was smooth during this day, at night fall we had some squalls and had to get rid of the code 0. While deploying the Genoa, the code 0 sheet got furled within the Genoa furler and we had to spend some time under the rain fixing it. First cold shower for some of the crew (mostly Fred). Tomorrow back to normal hot showers as normal aboard IDEFIX !
