Skyelark of London - Day 11
Day 11
A milestone in the voyage today with Skyelark passing the half way mark to
Saint Lucia mid morning. Only another 1600 miles to go! The half way mark
was celebrated in grand style with a sumptuous leg of lamb roast dinner
prepared by skipper Dan, with some assistance in the galley from Bill, who
was designated MUM for the day. Served in the salon on proper plates along
with a fine bottle of red it was hard to believe that we were in fact in the
very middle of the vast Atlantic ocean. Once again we see frustratingly
light winds, and whilst we are continuing on a course to Saint Lucia it
looks like an arrival time of around the 11th or 12th December is our best
estimate at this time. We have all had a guess of our arrival time into
Saint Lucia, with the winner having the privilege of helming Skyelark over
the finish line.
