Day 53

Friday 26th of February 2010 at 00:21

Well today has come and gone fairly quickly. As you can imagine you have a lot of time to think about things out here. I spent most of the day thinking about how I'm going to sort out my finances when I get back. I looked at my watch and over 4 hours had gone past. Great I thought! Conditions have slowed a little the wind that has helped me over the past few days was on holiday today. Fortunately there was still some following current with me. I took another dip in the big blue today just to clean the bottom again. There was more to be scrubbed off than I thought there would be. I need to do it a bit more frequently now I think. Not sure if it was just in my head or not but the good ship Speedo did feel a little easier to pull through the water after. Not sure how well I'll sleep tonight as my AIS has picked up a cargo ship coming straight towards me. It's 70 miles away at the moment but it will only take 7 hours to get to me. Fingers crossed it doesn't come to close.

Someone sent me a txt today saying "Howdy Ketch can you let me know if you get this" Yes I did get it but I don't know who it's from as there is no name or email address??

Another day bites the dust.
