We crossed the equator last evening at 18.28 – from autumn to spring in the blink of an eye. George produced a fantastic spaghetti bolognaise for supper last night.

In the early hours of the morning I awoke to a great surging and thought that sounds a bit rough. I found Rob enjoying flying through the water with 26knots of wind on the beam. A bit much I said so lets take in a reef. No 3 reef set and things calmed down so what. It didn’t last too long though and by 10:00 we were motor sailing.

George decided he would make supper again and produced a stunning curry.

Not much wind motor sailing mostly, but getting to sail every now and again. Clouds around but no rain, which would be great to get the salt off the boat. It is hot and sticky.

Had eggs and bacon for lunch with home made bread. Guess supper will be left over curry.

 

All well but hot
