27 January: Cape to Rio, day 12

For the third day running I have taken the morning helming shift and drive until after breakfast. I have also been driving in the afternoon/evening during supper and until the night shift start. This means that I am a bit tired by the time our shift starts.

The current weather prediction is looking good for us. It means that we can stay on a starboard tack and the wind will “curve”, taking us straight to Rio.

There has been some discussion about our arrival date aboard. If we keep the current pace, chances are we will arrive in Rio by next week Wednesday or Thursday. By now Leroy and I are fantasising about the things we can enjoy in Rio. Steak, beer and the company of the local ladies :)
