As I was going forward to transfer diesel to the main tanks, two humpback whales broke the surface just in front of the starboard bow. The one then rolled over on to its back showing the white underside just below the surface. Quite a sight.

Still no wind but bright and sunny. Rob decided it was time for a swim off the back. So we slowed down and with a harness on he jumped off the back. Not to be out done George followed. Joyce and I watched.

The wind arrived as forecasted but a bit later than expected. Hopefully it will stay.
Cheers
