Got to the half way mark around 0900 this morning. Wind has dropped a bit
now and we are averaging 6 kts. Makes sleeping easier. We were not getting much
with all the noise and motion ! Now broad reaching in a nice northerly 4. Got
the asymetric up so speed improving. Nothing much to report. Chris had to ask a
supertanker to alter course as the nearest approach on the AIS showed 82 feet !
Got the towed generator out and it is working well. Days are quite cloudy so the
solar panels not doing much. Trying out Mr. D’s thermal cooker today. Caroline
doing a beef stew. Will report on the results. Bought some cheap Portuguese gin
in Lexioes. Horrible, might make a good paint stripper ! Will stick with the
Spanish stuff, much nicer ! All for now.
