(so take off all your clothes)
 
phew what a scorcher....the sun is out winds are really lightening we are carrying full sail and barely making 5.5 knots and its like a sauna downstairs. Might need to put the donk on later as the wind dies right off and that’ll heat things up a bit more ...I’m going to try and find a way to sleep on deck! plus we have run out of bread (it went moldy) so kirsty is making bread too.....are you getting the picture ...its blimmen hot. (not that you want to hear that back in winter in uk)
 
anyway tonight we pass a real milestone ...halfway and we are putting the clocks back to compensate for going west by 1 hour so we get an extra hour of happy hour – 3 hours hoorah!!
 
Steve trailed a line yesterday and caught an enormous mahi mahi fish which kirsty cooked up and  apart from the slow speed this is what we all envisaged the crossing would be like.
 
weve got a couple days of calm then back to honkin downwind sailing hopefully
