The Atlantic, day 13

Distance: 122nm

Halfway paaaaaaarty!

Meant ryebread for lunch, surprises, games and goodies all day.
Nice sunny weather with 8m/s wind, and some interesting waves. Few splashes in the cockpit. Henning got a big one for breakfast.

At lunchtime we spotted a big ship. Ole called them on the radio, and asked for a weather report. They called us back with a 4 day report, and a fine one. Excellent, and thanks to the ship, Seatrade.

We're still doing a good speed, around five knots.

Now, at 11:15pm I'm finally in bed. Helped with rigging the "stormfog"...
The speed was getting close to 7 knots. With the stormfog and the big sail tied in second rope, the 12 ton boat is still doing 5.5 knots. Not that nice at night time when people have to sleep.
My bed is still moving quite a bit, so I've rolled a "blanket roll" to prevent me falling out of the bed. It's probably time for a boring sound book...
