Day seven

“17/12 15.30 GMT N23.57 W20.50 All seems well! Now have the easterly behind us we were aiming for so big, rough conditions but faster over the water. So swings and roundabouts! No injuries or ailments so far apart from blistered toes from the foot straps. It’s warm and we’re never cold at night, but it’s been mostly overcast so haven’t had the chance to see anymore of those amazing full moons or sunsets. Really enjoying the rowing, its wonderful out here…but the living on the boat is hard. Zero space is not easy for someone as big and clumsy as me! Lots of music, particularly on the overnight 2 hour shifts. Recommend the following from our playlist: Lee Morgan, The Sidewinder The Minnows, Elephant Man Garland Jeffreys, Ghostwriter Desmond Decker, Fu Man Chu Ash, Kung Fu3”
