wind NE 18-22kts.

Still heading SW wing & wing in 22kts breeze. All is great aboard but this typer is T-I-R-E-D so will keep short. We've come 1580nm in 9.5 days & have 1110 to go, which means our average speed has been 7kts, & average daily run has been 166nm. We are very pleased with these numbers! Forgot to mention last night, in case anyone wondered at the prudence of being on watch alone at night, that when we are in cockpit or on deck at night & in heavy wx we are clipped in with our harnesses. It's a dark night
tonight and we are surfing down the waves at over 10kts. All our best from the middle of the ocean!
