Title: 28 29n 47 37w

Hi Everybody,
 
Position 28 29n 47 37w   COG 70  wind s/sw  15kts  Distance travelled  1205nm  HALF WAY. Quite night had chance to recuperate. Have had to put new slider on mast and Adam has had to go up the mast to repair lazy jacks. Otherwise all ok. Happy Easter.
 
Yo, getting a bit bored of being woken up for watches now, kinda wish i could just step off the boat right now but hey ho.  Apparently i have to fix the mast so the bosons chair is out just waiting for the rain to stop!  Rather annoyed with mum she failed to get any easter eggs on board, this boat isn't very well provisioned in my mind. Just been up the mast for what seemed like a very long time fixing a few things.  First the top track car came off so that had to be reattached, then with that done, whilst hoisting the mainsail the pulley for the lazy jacks broke so I had to go back up the mast to swap that.  Now have some lovely friction burns on my thighs from holding on! See you all soon. Adam x
 
Hi Pam and all  Great nights sleep boat flying along in night and then wind dropped.  Few technical problems this morning so lost a little bit of time but boat safer now.  Nearly only one waypoint to go!! 900nm or so away.  Happy easter all Dick  Arun - sorry made mess of returning your txt send again? ta
 
Hi Pat. Thanks for text which I ineptly deleted before replying.  Hectic morning as you can see from items 1&2 above.At one stage we were heading back to Antigua for a couple of hours.Now back on track with a good wind making 7k plus in the right direction. Not too sure about the easter eggs ref.Glad you made it to church to bring Wendy W up to date. Hope all OK with you. Regards to Lucy and Robert. Mike.
