Hello Everyone,
Well at last we have wind again so the engine is off and we are sailing again. The downside is that the wind is now on our nose, so we are zig-zagging, doing a lot of extra mileage and, once again, we live life on a bucking and weaving slope. The upside of that is that it is such an effort to do anything that it is good low-grade exercise. We are taking quite a lot of water over the front of the boat but we are making good progress. We are now approximately level with the border between Sierra Leone and Guinea. Last night we went over the Sierra Leone Rise with several sea mounts. One of them rises just about sheer from 4,000m to 207m. That meant a lot of water welling over them and a fairly large swell for us. We have 500nm to go to the Cape Verdes and should be there by Saturday. That's all for now folks.
Keep well and keep :)
Dimitri & Arti
