Well done Conall, Nikki and Matt on your Elliot Brown Ocean Sprint points.

There’s not much sprinting going on right now - we have found the world famous Indian Ocean ‘keep you away from the cold wine’ Doldrums. We are here enjoying the sunshine and flat water. The ocean is an incredible blue but just one important ingredient missing, WIND!

This morning the on watch think they spotted pilot whales, but they didn’t hang around for too long, so we never got a chance to confirm that. Perhaps they were either pilot whales or huge, huge dolphins.

The helms have been doing an awesome job of keeping the boat moving as always, sails going up and coming down - they are making the use of every bit of breeze that comes their way.

I must admit it is pretty tough having a nice safety net of a lead and now see it gone - it is hard. But there is still a lot of sailing to do yet so we are still giving it our all. We don’t know where PSP Logistics is (morning Matt) as they are now in sneaky Stealth Mode.

I’m sitting in the Nav Station and all I can do is imagine that everyone else is moving and we are in our own time warp.

Anyway, time will tell who will win this game of snakes and ladders.

How’s the serenity? It’s here in way too much supply.

Love youse all.

Wen
