A visitor
This morning, While we are 1000 nautical miles from the nearest land, a dazzling whiteness tropicbird visits us. Surprising so far on sides! It seems to me that Bernard Moitessier said that the tropicbird announces the approach of the Earth because he does not stray more than 300 miles. Finally it is perhaps misplaced because it turns several times around the mast to try to land or rest… without success.
Neuvime day of sea and still very good weather conditions. Wind in 15 and 20 nodes, sky blue with small white Cumulus clouds. The gennaker is out with one reef in the mainsail. This allows us to get the wing quickly when grain catch up with us. These (big gray clouds below which give heavy showers and windy) go steadily on our shores… and some do not miss us! In ten minutes the Sun is back and calm returns.
More than 900 miles until Antigua…
