Day 7

All's well aboard Parati... except the windpilot which died yesterday - well slight exaggeration, the thin drive rod got bent due weight of sargasso weed on the pendulum rudder and/ or my efforts trying to remove it. It was pretty much done its job anyway for this trip and with light or no winds ahead [...]

Day 11

All still going well aboard Parati. Not much to report over the last 24 hours. Wind has picked up a bit recently and we have covered 180 nautical miles in each of the last two days (around 150 miles a day prior to that). A bit squally this morning with gusts up to 35 knots. Still in the (sea)weeds and so servo-pendulum wind steering continues to be out of action! Yesterday's position and blog posting were sent via a radio station in North Carolina and previous posts were sent via stations in Belgium, Nova Scotia and Trinidad; the radio station used depends on propagation (how well the radio waves bounce off the ionosphere) and amount of radio traffic (how busy) - in case you were interested!
