[status] Lazy afternoon enjoying the sunshine and reading our books whilst motoring on a very glassy sea. No rolling or banging of sails so almost perfect conditions except for no wind. Wind picked up to 8 kts at 9.30 PM and we were sailing again. Gigi won't be breaking any speed records but the crew are much happier with the engine off. Cruising is of course "slow travel".
[speed] 4.6 kts
[heading] 136T
[weather] Sunny with 5% CC, winds NE-NNE @ 10kts with slight seas
[END]
The sea is the same as it has been since before men ever went on it in boats.
