Only 372nm to go!

This morning has been taken up with adding some extra rigging on the boat to try and get some more speed! Gladly have come up with a solution and seems to be working! The blown out light weight spinnaker has been turned into a backstay staysail, and the rest of it is now an asymmetric inside the medium Spinnaker!

We also have the staysail u on a loose luff, and so we are moving at 8-9kn  in 10kn of wind, and to top it all on course!!

Everyone onboard is well, just looking fwd to getting in now!
