Good morning folks,

We have had the Code 2 (mediumweight) spinnaker up for just over 24 hours now. Early this morning conditions became exciting for helms as the wind increased. However, we have learned lessons from our wrap and watch change went smoothly this time. We are changing positions round the boat every 20 minutes to keep focus, everyone on deck is involved in keeping HotelPlanner.com going fast.

We are keeping our eyes open for penguins but we haven't seen any yet. There was a whale sighting a few mornings ago but recently the only wildlife has been birds, albatrosses, possibly terns and a black one that we are not sure of…Must download a book when we get to Freo.

Happy sailing.
