[status]Had a great day yesterday - had the spinny up from sunrise to sunset. In the meantime I worked out we have 2 champions on board! Lionel the champ captain who fathomed a way to fix the screecher, and Ken the card champ who won all the card games! At sunset we 'replaced' the spinnaker with the screecher and consequently enjoyed another comfortable night's sail. Had a pod of dolphins around the boat at daybreak this morning.
[weather]10-12 kn from ENE . seas 0.5 m . 80% blue sky.
