Passage from Bermuda to Azores Position: N35:16:9 W059:01:2

Bermuda to Very pleasant day yesterday after the sun came out. Lots of
amps! Seas a bit rolly, but a decent fast broad reach under well reefed main
and genoa. All going well till around midnight, then it all started
again, though no thunder thankfully. Got the genoa away and down to staysail and
reefed main. Winds anywhere between 20-35k, and skuding along at 8-9k most of the
time. Really heavy rain and strong gusts after dawn this am, and only now
starting to clear away and provide an opportunity to work at the computer
(1400utc). Not bad enough though to stop David making scrambled eggs on toast
for breakfast! Managed to make SSB contact with the pack of boat ahead of
us (Deesse, Date and time: 16th May 2016; 09.15 GMT Position: N35:16:9 W059:01:2 24 hr distance: 183M |
