30th June 2010. 06.40. 37deg 57N 41deg 07W Pressure 1028. Day 24
Nice bright sunny morning again. Wind perked up a little and veered a bit more south during the night. Will pole out and head a little more north goosewinged in a minute. Ship passed to the north of me, watched him change course about 5 miles away on AIS to give a bit more room, nice to know they care. I called up on vhf to say thanks. 2nd person I´ve spoken to in 3 1/2 weeks. Made good enough speed in 24 hours up to 6am, 120 miles. Not the heady heights of recently but good enough.
07.10. That´s better, poled out, gybed main to starboard and now running dead downwind nice and peacefully. Some dolphins came to help, hello boys and girls!! Love ´em!
12.30 Wind up a bit, 2nd reef in main. Days run of 127Nm. 440 to go.
