Captain's blog day 59
Occasionally, hygiene needs to be tended to. So you "dive into the bucket".....

Days don’t differ much here at the lower latitudes.  Same procedure.  Breakfast.  The wind is quite strong today, about 20 knots and we make do with the genua for starters.  At 1300 (GMT), which is about 0900 local time we tally al of 171 miles for the day.  Very good indeed and we figure that this will be our distance left at approximately 2100 local time.

Leif makes tuna fish salad+pasta and the crew seems pleased.  Magnus tops this with pasta carbonara in the evening.  Tagliatteli +two egg yolks (per person) +bacon + parmesan cheese on top.  Delicious.

Meanwhile, in the afternoon, we tried to hoist our remaining gennaker.  We find, however, 3 tiny, tiny rifts close to the  clew horn: Down for repair with sail tape.  We let the sail be for the day in the hope that we can make good use of it tomorrow which we figure will our last day out (!)
