Midwatch 1-16-14 8:13 AM EST
Hi All,
Kim here. Bob is napping this morning. We finally have wind from the east this
morning and we are aiming directly towards Martinique at around 5 knots. With
the wind behind us, the roll is back, which means anything not tacked down takes
on a life of its own. We have had flying crackers, honey, a popcorn bowl and
little toy cars all zipping about. We also have more squalls which means Bob was
up on other's watches as well as on his own two watches. With three of us taking
three hour watches, the watch schedule rotates and every three nights you end up
with two night watches instead of one. Bob hit that last night too.
According to the GPS we have a little over 1,100 nautical miles to go which puts
us there in eight to 10 days. Our stores are still solid with each of us adding
to the menu. Each of us have now caught a fish. Anna wanted fish cakes with her
fish and we had those for dinner yesterday, it was quite a treat. We will
attempt to make fish nuggets with Finn's fish today.
Our current position:
15º 19.191' N
41º 48.793' W
