#6. Cuba to Bermuda | Day 2
Saturday May 4, 2024
Another day is coming to an end as we watch the sunset go down over the horizon. The good news is that FALKEN is still doing over 9 knots which means we've done another 210 nautical miles + day! The bad news is that we're still going upwind.... that's right, ever since we left Cuba we've been on a hill, sleeping on an angle, cooking on an angle, socialising on an angle.... the crew have been loving it tho, and the smooth sea states is what's allowing us to have such great averages.
Chris and I are very excited for the upcoming days and the long promise from the forecast for the wind to slowly start veering.... only time will tell! On other news, we have experienced a couple of little squalls, everyone has had a shower and rainbows have been spotted. It's also great to see how no one is suffering from the green monster, even on this constant angle! I cooked a bolognese tonight and we had lovely discussions about how people eat their spaghetti over dinner... Thank god there aren't any Italians onboard!! Much love to everyone!
May the 4th be with you from onboard the Millenium Falken.
