May 25, 2015

Winds have stayed consistent and skies bright for the past four days, today we have a bit more cloud cover, rain and fluctuating winds. The crew is breaking into the foul weather gear, with hopes sun shines again very soon and we can shed these waterproofing layers. We are nearly to the halfway point, and approaching the gulf stream within the next couple of days. A Shearwater Tern befreinded us, enjoying our ginger snaps and staying close astern for the entirety of yesterday, picking at our scraps as we rinse our dishes off the stern. Hours and days blur, as the watch schedule takes over- harnesses strapped on, sails adjusted and course set- dawn and dusk, day and night all encompassing these tasks to move us forward. Nothing a bit of fresh fruit and some bright music  to turn around a rainy day.
