Unfortunately there is not much news and it seems that this will be the format for the next couple of days. I briefly spoke to Lee last night and they are having problems connecting the satellite communication system to the internet on their laptops. Communication is therefore limited to 160 character sms’s and 55 second phone calls. The obvious result of this at the moment is that there will be no blog updates. The only blog that is being updated is Soul Sail (http://sailingsash.blogspot.com/). This is being done by Nicolas who is plotting there course on a map so that all can follow. For those interested in watching their progress, I suggest that you check this site, just like I have to.
Lee sounded ok but tired. Lee is still feeling very seasick and said that she is quite drained from it, but otherwise feeling well. Don’t know how you can feel well when you’re seasick – I thought that I was dying and certainly didn’t feel well. Sasha seems to have made a turn for the better and is on the road to feeling ok. Hopefully Lee follows shortly. I know that they have medication and a large supply of rehydration drinks so it shouldn’t be too long now (hopefully).
With regards to the actual trip, they are doing well. Word was that the sailing is good and the sea is beautiful.
Until tomorrow morning, we wish them trailing winds and calm seas.
