I have been stuck in that UTC-5 time zone for so long that even though we are now in UTC-6 my body clock has not adjusted and hence this late filing. And thatâs about the only thing that has changed in the last day. Steady ESE Trades becoming a little blustery on the occasion of a passing squall but no need to change anything. Sailing dead before the wind is not really the most comfortable but I am ever aware that I should be making some Northing as there is a possibility of some light variable winds at this latitude a few days hence. I had the usual little treat which I wonât continue to bore you with unless something really special comes up. Sunny blue skies and good progress marked another pleasant day.
