708 miles to go

The spinnaker is finally up. There was much deliberation, but as soon as Isis was spotted on the horizon hoisting, up she went. Gently rolling along now at 9ish knots. The right decision.

Dorado turned out to be a fine dish for those brave enough to try and "william", our preferred lure, is out plying his trade again. All happy to see Tenerife disappear out of sight as it gives the impression of good progress.
Some of the crew are in a celebratory mood and have decided to have a wash. A few more dolphin companions late in the evening to keep us company but wildlife surprisingly scarce.
