25 May
We take our official 24-hour-distance at 13.00, local Aniara-time, and it is almost 3 hours ahead. We can anyhow say that our distance will be around 150 NM for this 24-hour-period and we still believe we reach Horta on Sunday, if the weather conditions not change dramatically. We started slow yesterday afternoon and early night but the wind increased and we are now sailing between 8-10 knots with the wind in from the aft. The only special thing that has happened since last log is that we got a completely new dish served onboard yesterday, Fettuccini á lá Gorgonzola, and it was great new experience. Otherwise there are the same dolphins swimming around (water temperature is now below 16 degrees) and the same absence of fish hooked up on our tackle. If we get no fish we have no use of the lobster concentrate (hummerfond) we brought.
