Another blissful day of sunshine and calm seas. The wind is a bit too light for decent boatspeed, but the joy of sliding gently through deep blue waters under a sunny sky make up for it. Loving the sunshine and the gentle sailing.
We had some rain squalls last night to keep us on our toes; the wind doing loops around the boat, stopping then swirling and finally giving us a great sailing breeze to hit 9+knots for an hour or so. Then the local rain-squall weather disappeared and we are back to the light.
Good fun and definitely makes the midnight watch go quickly.

Targeting a Tuesday arrival, all being well.
Our new mission is to eat all the food before bio-security seize and destroy it. A far cry from the first day with 30+ knots and no one that keen on dinner really.

That's all for now. Back to the sunshine.
