day 6
Last day of sailing today as we rounded the most westerly point of Cuba late last night. It's back to coaching at the helm as many of the crew experience upwind conditions for the first time. With a totally flat sea and warm airflow, the conditions are idyllic. We are currently waiting for the wind to back to the north to facilitate a tack that will put us directly on track to Hemingway Marina. The moon has lit the way throughout the night, and the sun will be reappearing very soon as we commence our final day of the voyage.

After some nice rest and time to explore the Galapagos, it's now time to welcome a new crew to FALKEN and start a new adventure!

You’d think this crew bonding is borne on the back of shared mild discomfort - life’s steadfast instructor. But we have all of the mod cons - showers 2 - 3 times a day*, ice in our drinks **, great food (without fail!).
Life of luxury
Today started with a Blue-Footed Booby on the bow amongst his Red-Footed, Nazca, and Brown Booby friends.
