DAY 5 & 6 & 7 - SAILING NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN

Our 5th, 6th and 7th day on the North Atlantic Ocean. In the morning on day 5 we were lucky to have pods of Dolphins entertain us for quite some time and one even awarded us with a perfect jump (see last video below). There was not much to do and very little wind, we almost sailed backwards and at one point we even watched a fly pass us! Believe it if you wish :-)

On day 5 we finally had enough wind to hoist the Spinnaker. After five days at sea we were getting pretty bored so we arranged a private beer party, daring to be a bit tipsy while aboard.

On day 6 we saw a turtle sticking it´s head above water. On day 7 both sails where up but did little to get us further towards our first goal - Porto Santo. Of course there were stunning sunrises and sunsets but after so many days one does tend to adopt a little attitude, like "so what?".
