We had very nice sushi for lunch and pan fried Mahi Mahi for dinner. We have only just put the fishing lines out today as there has been rain showers all morning. Today we put the clocks forward 1 hour to GMT -4 which is Antigua time. It has been a slow progress with over a knot of current against us and wind mostly on the nose. Later today we will turn and aim directly for Antigua and head down in to the trade winds. Hopefully then we will be able to sail and pick up a bit of speed.
