A ship is safe in harbour...but that's not what they are for
The Cerulean Big Atlantic Adventure is now over. We are moored back at our home port of Gosport in the UK, and our adventure is rapidly turning into just a memory.

A yacht sailed to Horta (8ft swell every 6 secs)
mile after mile onwards we sail hour after hour heading nor'east we go watch after watch we eat and we sleep day after day we're making our way
Water then sky we see through the port wave after wave pitching and rolling from side to side yawing and twisting day after day we're making our way
A big wave hits now and then jarring the boat, knocking us off course reset the helm and onwards we go day after day we're making our way
The sun it rises the sun it sets the sun it traverses across the sky from the east to the west again and again day after day we're making our way
the wind it blows, it blows so hard the wind it lulls we drift we wallow backing and veering front after front day after day we're making our way
creaking and groaning, as we rock and we roll whistling and humming, as the wind it do blow our boat it is singing with pain and with joy day after day we're making our way
600 miles down 1200 to go only a third of the way, plenty to go only day six, ten more to go day after day we're making our way
mile after mile onwards we sail hour after hour heading nor'east we go watch after watch we eat and we sleep day after day we're making our way
day after day we're making our way
