Galapagos - Marquesas Day 11

After an amazing 24 hr run yesterday today proved to be a little more subdued! The winds were light all day but we still managed to sail quite well. Taking advantage of the blue skies again we did a load of washing and hung it out to dry and also washed our cockpit scatter cushions which were a bit dirty. We had salt water showers on deck (followed by a rinse off with hot fresh water from the solar shower!). We passed the half way point in the evening, but celebrated throughout the day with bacon sandwiches for lunch and nachos as a mid afternoon snack and then pizza for tea - yummy! The wind died during the night and we had to motor from 3:15am to 8:45am this morning to stop the sails banging and crashing in the swell.
24 Hour Run: 138 n/m
Total Distance Run: 1,622 n/m
Distance to Run: 1,483 n/m
