The Atlantic, day 10

Distance: 68nm

Have been sailing with sails for more than 24 hours now.
This morning we had headwind. The reason is we still want to head north to reach an area with westerly winds.
We are sailing with three sails today. An extra jib-sail is up.
Three sails up, alright wind, but in a poor direction = our speed 2 knots.
Walking would be quicker... :-)
A better wind made us do around 4 knots at night time.

We have 120 litres of freshwater in the tank. We use this water for cooking, brushing teeth.
For dishwashing and washing hands we use saltwater.

The lunch menu today was 50 pancakes. Rasmus, Lea and I was chefs. Hot work with 32 degrees in the saloon.
The menu was very popular, and all pancakes were gone in the end.

We have changed our clocks today with +1 hour.
