25 January: Cape to Rio, day 10

Today was uneventful from a sailing point of view. Two gibe’s and that's it. The wind has been shifting us around a bit, causing us to sail lines we weren’t expecting/intending.

I did two helming shifts, the first from before breakfast until late morning and the other till sundown. It was nice to zone out for a while and concentrate solely on helming. It is a feeling that I love when sailing, getting into “the groove”.

I slept a bit better, partly due to the change in shifts. Our shift now starts at sundown, which means that there isn’t that 2 hour gap between sundown and our shift. This gives me a bit more continuous time during the night to sleep.
