We managed to sail all day and part of last night. The nights have been really dark and we have only seen two ships (one was the MSC SORAYA – 227m long and all lit up).

12-12-10 noon position: 25d 08′ N, 18d 27′ W
Noon to noon : 190 nm 227d T

It is Monday morning and we are motoring again (about 40 hr so far) with only 5 kn of wind from behind and a somewhat lumpy sea. We have been dropping the mainsail while under power to keep it from thrashing about.
