News from the fleet:
Myrtle of Bonnievale:
We had 20 knots of wind from South the whole of yesterday and made good miles under main sail and spinnaker. Today is sunny with 14 knots of wind from the South and we are moving satisfactory.
We have not had much luck with fishing, but this morning Lize found a small ink fish (Chokka-type) who jumped on deck last night. Too small to eat. Lize and PK presented Pilatus classes on the foredeck. We saw TamTam crossing our stern last night. Skipper of TamTam is Jasper van der Westhuizen who only has one arm – inspiring and amazing.
Love to all.
Pierre
Ronin:
Finally feels like we going to Rio and not Angola. Weather now perfect and moving fast. Just baked bread rolls and made boeri rolls for lunch.
Indulgence:
These guys have had the same idea yesterday…
