Update: Day 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good morning from our Atlantic crossing to the Azores! It’s a picturesque day with clear skies and abundant sunshine greeting us aboard. Yesterday, we had an exceptional 24-hour run averaging 9.1 knots, thanks to flying the Code Zero with a reefed main\u2014sometimes fully hoisted depending on the wind conditions over the past few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sea state has been variable, offering us thrilling moments of surfing, including Darren’s impressive speed of up to 17 knots yesterday. Currently, we’re navigating between low pressure systems, adjusting our course to avoid an approaching front to the north while staying within the optimal breeze range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the rest of the crew catches up on sleep before their shifts, I’ve enjoyed my morning coffee and am focused on trimming the sails and fine-tuning our course to maintain speed in these unpredictable seas. Ensuring our sails are perfectly set ensures a smooth and efficient journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s shaping up to be another great day on the ocean. Wishing you a fantastic day ahead as well\u2014cheers from our seafaring adventure!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update: Day 5<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greetings from aboard Pipilota, our stunning Balance 526, as we continue our Atlantic crossing towards the Azores. The past days have seen us navigating alongside a persistent cold front, but thanks to the exceptional performance of this catamaran, we’ve managed to keep pace with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a prolonged chase, the front has finally passed us by, leaving behind clear blue skies and a refreshing northern breeze that has us close-hauled. As we sail, hopeful for a dinner catch with our fishing lines trailing behind, we’ve also been treated to freshly baked banana nut muffins courtesy of Panda\u2014culinary delights that sweeten our journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update: Day 6<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we sail through the Atlantic towards the Azores, today has been nothing short of eventful. Surpassing the halfway mark of our journey, we found ourselves in a tranquil lull between low pressure systems, prompting us to switch to motor power. But not before indulging in a mid-Atlantic swim\u2014a cherished tradition aboard the Outer Passage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With calm seas prevailing, we seized the opportunity to rinse off the accumulated salt from every corner of the boat and catch up on laundry, all while basking in the warmth of the sun. Eventually, a gentle breeze returned, allowing us to hoist the code zero sail once more. And then, a delightful interruption\u2014a catch! Reeling in a sizable tuna, though challenging, rewarded us with a delicious dinner at sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update: Day 7 & 8<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Atlantic crossing to the Azores has been marked by two exhilarating days of sailing under the asymmetrical spinnaker. Perfect wind conditions allowed us to achieve our new passage record with a top speed of 17.9 knots\u2014a thrilling milestone for our journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Handling the spinnaker has been a team effort, with everyone taking turns at the helm to master trimming and preventing collapses, all while riding the waves with intense concentration. The sheer size and power of this sail have made every moment on deck both challenging and deeply rewarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the winds begin to calm and shift, we’re determined to hold onto flying the spinnaker for as long as nature permits. Tomorrow promises new directions and adventures\u2014we’ll see where the wind takes us next. Cheers to the journey!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update: Day 9 & 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sailing through the Atlantic towards the Azores has brought us to a tranquil halt in the heart of a high pressure zone. Today, we find ourselves becalmed, relying on our trusty motor to inch us forward. Every now and then, a gentle breeze sweeps by, teasing us with the hope of sail-worthy winds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the stillness, there’s a silver lining to this pause. It’s given us the opportunity to indulge in some unexpected activities aboard. From baking a cake to crafting fresh loaves of bread, catching up on laundry, and tackling essential maintenance tasks that are hard to manage while sailing. The crew even found time for a bit of splicing\u2014a true testament to making the most of every moment at sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After 11 days at sea, the wind returned, allowing us to hoist the sails again and approach the Azores on a deep reach with the code zero and full main. At 30 miles out, we finally spotted land on the horizon. The lush green landscape, steep cliffs, and volcanic slopes made for a breathtaking landfall. After 1900 nautical miles, we anchored, checked in, and celebrated ashore with a burger and beer at the famous Peter Cafe Sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
