Day 5

Skipped a posting yesterday, we passed the halfway point to Bermuda sometime yesterday and should be arriving there on Friday

Today has been a beautiful day with much calmer seas than the last few days. Unfortunately that was accompanied by zero winds so we are now motoring. Judging by the radio reports ( there are two radio check ins a day) many others are also motoring.

Yesterday was a rough day with a few squalls but overall not too bad. Luckily I have not experienced any seasickness. Yesterday and today have been sitting in the cockpit reading.

Had a request via a comment on Pixie Dust's blog about what kind of boat I'm on. It's a 1980 Morgan 46 center cockpit sailboat. It's about 46' long and has a beam of 13'. It's quite comfortable. The aft head even has a bathtub! We have all the water we could want as there is a water maker that takes the seawater and converts it to drinking water at a rate of about 12 gallons an hour. There is a hot water heater so we have hot water showers.

  1. Nice Pat, a Morgan 46 center cockpit. Sturdy boat, normally the inside are customized. How is this one?
