1339 nm to go...

we are sailing along very fine with fresh to strong winds out of the south-east, around 20-25 knots. Our average speed is over 7 knots, so we should make the whole passage to St. Helena in 10 to 11 Days, what means our eta is the 31. of January or 1. of February.
That gives us 2 to 3 nights in St. Helena before we are heading of for Recife in Brazil. Everything is fine on board. With the sea much calmer then the night before last night we had a good night sleep between our 3 h shifts.
Our bodies need around 3 days to get into the rhythm of the sea and the sleeping and watching. So the first days are always a bit exhausting, but then you get into the daily routine of watching, cooking, eating, reading, fishing, setting the sails and listening to the sounds of the boat if everything is ok.
