Live from Onboard

Thursday morning very early (2am), 193nm to go, 6.0kn

Some of you must really be thinking I am getting old before my age and have
an early onset of being senile!
No way of course that we'd do 238nm in 24 hours or less! So yes, I should
have said "...might make Iceland the day after tomorrow some time (ie
Friday)..."
And of course, Saturday was the 9th, not the 10th. Oops again.

10 minutes into our watch, weather changed from bright sunshine to fog, with
visibility less then 25 meters to the front of the boat and about 50 meters
to the side...just our luck.
The weirdest thing happened though a bit later: all of a sudden, we could
look 'over the fog' on the starboard side of the boat! A bright blue sky,
with some wispy clouds was showing just above a thick layer of
fog...uncanny!
It's back to just foggy again though, so radar watch and look out, but at
least have been able to roll out the staysail again! Gained half a knot!

More tomorrow!
