[status] On passage, Cabo Verde towards France.

Kept sailing towards Lorient, France, until 10am his morning. Since then we have had only 2-3 knots of wind so have been motoring in the same direction. We are in a "high" but definitely not on one! Not much wind for a day or so to come.
We keep ourselves busy doing boat jobs. Meals definitely become the highlight of the day.
Although there is no moon at present we find there is a lot of starlight. Also as we move North the nights are getting shorter so things are not too bad.
*The barometer suddenly dropped 6mb in one hour this afternoon which would indicate a hurricane! Not sure what caused this but I do not think it was a change in pressure.

[speed] 5.0 knots
[heading] 060 degrees true
[weather] Wind 000 3kts. 0.0m waves. Sky 20% cloud. Baro 1011*
