Hot Stuff - skippers blog stardate christmas minus 21

Most  thnigs have been covered by other blogs, however just to add from me, we are now very tired but surviving. there is a lot of water out here, we have seen 1 boat for about 1 hour in 5 days. the fleet will presumably converge as we get near the finish but it would be nice to know there are other boats out here.  We feel we are now on the home stretch and counting down the miles. a shower a good taverner and some cold drinks are on the agenda. Thanks for all your support. steve
