Day 19 - Puerto Mogan to Antigua

We passed the 2000 mile mark! Yeah! Around 800 left to go, plus we've actually sailed for the last 24 hrs without needing the engine on - nice winds on the beam with good progress being made in the right direction!

Big news, today is Kate's birthday - "Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear Kate, Happy Birthday to you!!". Despite now officially being in her late twenties she dutifully got up to stand her midnight to 4am watch (we tried our hardest to persuade her to let someone else do it, but she is a stubborn one!). So today will be presents, cake and music to celebrate!

Got passed by an ARC boat yesterday morning - a HR54 - its taken them 2 weeks to close down the 350 mile headstart on us - not bad for a much bigger boat. They came really close which was nice, first boat we've seen for nearly a week!

Looking forward to arriving now - should be early next week with some luck.
