Morning! We are going fast! A good thing really as that's why we came all the way down here. We had quite a squally night last night however the sun is beaming down on us and the wind is still good. We are still trying to chip away at the miles between us and the guys to the north and, so far, we have been between 1-2 knots faster on average, so the computer tells us anyway! Fingers crossed that trend continues. There's not too many miles until the start of the Elliot Brown Ocean Sprint and we should be able to give a good showing for ourselves, although as we are a bit further behind than we initially intended we have been pedal to the metal since we turned left anyway!

The crew are all getting on well and have been dealing with the conditions nicely, even if the boat did more resemble a submarine than a boat last night as there was so much water coming over the deck! Safe to say the banana suits (drysuits) are back out in force.

TTFN
