[status] Day 10. Best mileage yet last 24hrs 135m. Lighter winds forecast so we will work harder at tweeking the sails. Constance (auto helm) has been great but is high maintenance on battery power. SO!! our skipper has sorted a very good backup wind steering sheet to tiller system that's working well. Running a little bit of motor now at low revs to charge batteries before the sun does its work with the solar panels. Another day closer to our destination YAY. Currently gull winging it. All well onboard.
