#6. Cuba to Bermuda | Day 3

Saturday May 5, 2024

Another day of stunning sailing onboard the good ship FALKEN, It has been fascinating to witness the change of temperature since our departure from Cuba and, although the sun has been present everyday since then, it has clearly cooled down to a lovely temperature, needing even a hoodie at night! We're still upwind and we're still very quick. Today we crossed our halfway point of the trip and we only have a little less than 600 nautical miles to go, just as far as a Fastnet Race. This morning we were very fortunate to witness an incredible moonrise followed by an even more stunning sunrise!

We have also been very lucky with the stars and we've been star gazing every single night, identifying different constellations and learning about different stories and mythology. Everyone onboard is doing great and the helming has been super smooth, everyone has definitely qualified for upwind helming!! Hopefully on tomorrow's blog I can tell you all about the beautiful downwind sailing that is coming.....
