Day 3 - Busy before 3am only 3 hours in

An early start and in a short space of time so much happpened.

Twisted Spinnaker

Constant running bilge pump and water sloshing around the starboard

Lunatics singing on VHF emergency channel for nearly 2 hours

2 shooting stars

Clear skies

Gentle hum of port engine

After my watch 6 hours sleep and the sole boards lifted to replace the bilge pump easy job and something to do be fore my next watch.

So far good winds 12 Knots and steady speed of 6.5knots with smooth water, so far.

After 8 hours sailong engines are up and running with course set to Gibraltar l. In an empty sea what do you think could happen? A Spanish Trawler sail towards us despite our 40gedrees of turning away.

The spinnaker is being stowed before our chicken dinner as we prepare for a night of motoring. Only 8 hours till I take watch.

Night all.

Just as was settling we were joined by Dolphins dancing around nearly as much as the crew.
