Thurs Feb 12,09 Day 5
Our night watch was dark and grey. No rain but a fairly heavy swell with steady Force 4 winds. We reset
the royals and flying jib jut at the change of watch.
It is still cloudy so may not get any sun sights this morning. My calculated position from the ones I took
yesterday was only 30 miles off, which is not bad really at least I’m in the right ocean and hemisphere.
More later…
The afternoon watch was uneventful. We had a workshop on how to handle the ship in squalls which was
cool and very timely given the recent weather.
The skies are pretty clear with a cool(ish) NE wind blowing and low puffy clouds flying along downwind.
The stars came out very bright tonight should be agood night watch. We reset our clocks back oe hour
tonight so I get an extra hours sleep to boot. Lovely.
Thanks for reading.
