Just started my last watch of this night. Feeling tired. Need to sleep at least once during the day.
Shigeo should feel the same. He also needs sleep.
Half time. 0400 log book entry.
Although in the last 4 h, the averaged SOG dropped just to 5.9 KN the day distance is 154 NM.
Wind increased back to 5 Bft and to E. Thus we get more AWS which pushes MaRe more and we get more electricity from the SuperWind 350 wind converter.
Ride is a bit bumpy now. Waves increased during the night.
RTE ETA is now a day earlier but we must keep our speed. Fluctuations are still too big.
Coffee. Do we still have some? Tea should be gone by now.
Lucky, there was cup of tea left. Took a chocolate chips cookie. Should learn how to bake chocolate chips cookie.
Who has a good recipe? Please send as text to skipper-cat-mare@myiridium.net You will get a special place in my heart, which beats for and with chocolate chips cookies.
Radar check. Nothing to be seen in 24 NM around us. Perfect!
Sunrise today is at 0630, thus around 0700 we will change to reef 1 in the main. MaRe’s working dress. Hope wind stays at 5 Bft this could give as average SOG, 7 KN. Let’s see!
