Day 20 - Puerto Mogan to Antigua

Well, Kate couldn't have asked for better birthday conditions really, hot, sunny, and a nice breeze from a good direction! We have been making really good progress and with 4 hours of day 20 still left to run we have already covered 120 miles!! We have around 670 left to Antigua and everyone is getting very excited about our arrival.

Kate enjoyed all her birthday emails - thank you very much and also all the cards that were sent out to the Canaries for her via her mum, she got a 'happy birthday' recital down the SSB radio from our friends on Chilli Oyster who are nearby headed for St. Lucia with the ARC.

We've been sailing now for 48 hours without having to resort to the engine which is soooo nice, but will need to top up the batteries again today (we've been using the autopilot as the wind / wave combination hasn't been great for using the Hydrovane windvane steering system).
