gutting the fish and we had some for supper. The run up to the equator
was great and we all made our own hats with some random stuff onboard.
We also found some rags and made some outfits to go with the hats. Rox
was fully dressed as a pirate and I made the boat BEE compliant as Mavis
with the help of some coco and a basket on my head. The boys had their
white robes and were dubbed King Neptune and King Neptwo. We started our
morning with a full English breakfast. Dustin and Adam then made an
awful concoction and we were baptised with it. Yuckkkk!!!! This was all
celebrated with a bottle of champagne afterwards.
We've been sailing under the Screecher for the last couple of days and
this morning we have the Genoa up and we are goose winging downwind with
some great speed. Really doing some awesome sailing. The weather has
been really hot since yesterday so we went for an early swim this morning
as the sun came up. The water temperature has finally reached 30°C and
its cooler outside than inside the water. We also had some unwanted squids
and fly-fish on board and some even found their way through the hatch and
into our bunk...
Our ETA to Mindelo is Thursday or Friday and we are all looking forward to
spending some time on land and exploring the island.
Our current lat and long is 5°5633N & 20°0175W.
Vol de Nuit over and out!
