The wind has continued to be kind to us. It slowly turned to downwind and by now we have gybed. Sailing wing on wing with the mainsail on starboard. The days are sunny and warm and we’ve only had a few rain squalls during the nights. By now I think everyone’s stomach has synced with Guppy’s sea dance, I’ve seen more and more books, kindles, games, and even some schoolwork come outside 🙂 Sadly Sander hasn’t managed to catch any fish yet – I think we’re too fast… but Guppy has done well in catching a few big specimens of flying fish. We choose to have quiche and tortilla wraps for dinner instead and yesterday we shared a nice bit of dark Tres Hombres Chocolate to celebrate passing our halfway mark to Bermuda. 320nm to go.

Many thanks for your blogs from the Atlantic. In the first one you painted with words
the surrounding, Guppy ‘ s red hull flying trough the blue ocean. In the second one
you tell us about the crew on board.
Here, in my armchair, I feel the movement of Guppy, see the big blue ocean and hear the voices of the young ones. I enjoy.
Looking forward to your next blog.

Als Guppy zo blijft vliegen zullen jullie nog verhongeren😉. Hopen op een minder winderige dag zodat Sander een vis kan vangen 😜 Voorlopig maar op Tres Hombres noodrantsoen 😋 Goede vaart (vlucht) en op naar Bermuda. Ik ben benieuwd… Groeten Jacco ✋🏼
You are making great pace out there on the water. Keep it up! Ben
