Our slow progress continues... we may just get the record for the slowest crossing ever! After one very welcome but sadly short lived period of wind on Xmas Eve and the morning of Xmas Day, the wind slackened, as expected.
We then tried heading S for more wind but that didn't succeed, so turned more north again a couple of days ago, expecting the winds around the calm patch we're in to kick in there first...
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
