Yup, we’re on the move again. Shortly before lunch yesterday we pulled up our anchor and put the isle of St. Helena to our stern, the tropical paradise of Fernando de Noronha is now in our very distant sights. The past 24 hours have been ridiculously flat and cruisy sailing, a bit slower than we’d like, but no complaints have been heard from any of the crew. Time has been filled with a few chores on the boat and learning the finer points of cribbage using the fancy board Mike P. commissioned from a local carpenter on St. Helena.
