Making progress East but still too much South in
the course, but we are moving and making some progress. if we are south and east
of the next developing depression we should get some wind from the west and head
directly for the Azores, however do not want 34+ kts so hope to be far
enough east to have a comfortable ride. But
tomorrrow will see the wind go east for a while so will have to decide if to go
north or south.
The sea temperature is now 24.4C and the air temp
is 21C I have had to take the TRAX off as its too hot day or night.
I think the the humidity is a function of local
effects and the low black cloud forms as the sun rises and goes as the sun sets
which is why night sailing is so much better at present.
