Conditions have, at long last, stabilised and last night I enjoyed a long sleep, recharging my batteries for the next hemisphere – crossing tomorrow hopefully. In the back of the increasingly sparse larder I have saved a special bottle, a somewhat battered looking bottle of Mumm, I intend to enjoy it fully – so it is now cooling wrapped in a damp cloth out in the wind!
SynerCiel is quicker in these conditions and we are now too close for the relative EWNS position to make any significant difference. There's not much I can do except watch him claw out a few miles today. Less than a month ago after some technical problems, SynerCiel was over 450 miles ahead, so it's great to be back alongside him.
