Day 35
Today was a slightly slower day. The wind just couldn't make up its mind which way it wanted to blow. This causes the sea conditions to be a bit all over the place as well. On the bright side I still managed to make progress. I thought I'd share a photo with you all of this evening's sunset. I took the photo at 7.35 GMT
Last night and this evening I've been getting visits from flying fish along side the boat. They haven't been able to jump in just yet.
I've been told there may be some more bad weather coming in 5 - 7 days so I'm going to just get as many miles ticked off as I can before it arrives.
All in all everything is good on HMS Speedo!

Day 33
Well the last two days have been good. I'm getting back into the rhythm of things now. Also am now back to consuming food at the rate a 500BHP Ferrari guzzles fuel! Apart from Jaws on day 31 I haven't seen any other interesting wildlife to talk about. It's 11.30pm as I write this and I've just come in from my last shift. Tonight's sky was amazing literally thousands of stars littered the sky. You obviously don't get light pollution out here.
I'm told someone wants to know if you can see my ribs yet. Yes you can although you pretty much could before I left. 33 days without shaving and I can confirm the beard is coming on as well. There is a slight hint of ginger in it and I have no idea where that has come from!
That's me signing off for another night.
