330 miles to go, the weather warms up a little bit and we were lucky, the wind was and still is a bit stronger than predicted. Realistically
we are very unlikely to arrive on Monday though because it is going to drop when we get closer to the island. Night time arrival is
theoretically possible, but there is a warning of unlit fish aggregating devices in the chart and it's a new moon. Last night it was hard to
see the bows of the boat most of the time. We'll decide early on Monday if we think we can make it in daylight and if not wait offshore for
Tuesday. Well, this is the plan, we'll see what comes :-).
Thanks to the water maker we're back to normal. After those days of limited cooking to save water a fresh brioche from the oven, salad
with fresh mayonnaise (potato, pickled cucumber, eggs, tomatoes). Good food galore and a functioning fresh water shower yey.
In between eating we read books ( Mike about more baking bread, Ellen Mandela's long walk to freedom), play on the practice chanter
(bag pipes are not good in waves), drum on the dining table, look at the horizon, sleep (3 hour shifts on Sleipnir III)...
