Videoconferencia Guillermo Altadill y Jonathan McKee a bordo del Estrella Damm

We are now at 31 W and 13 S, further south than I have been in the Atlantic. In a week we will be in the Southern Ocean, but for the moment it is pleasnt trade wind sailing, tight raching on port tack. Mixed clouds but not too hot, and very pleasant at night except spray all the time. The moon has been great but now is coming up later and waning. The days are getting longer though, as we get into the southern summer.

It is pretty mellow sailing, so a good chance to catch up on sleep, a little maintenance, and eating (plus makng water!).
Mostly steering with the autopilot and hand trimming the sails as needed.
The wind changes a bit with each passing cloud
