Ooooh we’re half way there!
Today we crossed the half way point, we now have under 1,080 miles to go.
For lunch we had crepes with cheese, bacon and tomato and for pudding we had crepes with honey and lemon.
For the last couple of days we have had better winds and we’ve been making good progress averaging about 7.5 knots and occasionally going faster.
We know that other boats have been catching fish but we haven’t caught any, we have lost three lures that big fish have taken.
We are passing over the mid Atlantic ridge which is a chain of underwater mountains.
A recommendation from Archie. Anyone with kids age about 8 to 10 or 11, they will probably enjoy the Percy Jackson books about a boy who finds out he is half god and goes on lots of adventures.
The weather has been hot and sunny. The waves are now coming mostly from behind us so we are not rolling that much. At night there are loads of stars. Tom and Lauren have been navigating us with the moon, planets and stars.
For our half way dinner we are having chicken curry tonight.
