Course 305 degr, speed around 6 kts.

Still a good and steady SE tradewind force 4 to 4+

Yesterday afternoon the wind came from dead astern so we set all 6 Stuns'ls (3 in each side).
But in the evening we found the wind slowly backing again so we dowsed the 3 on our portside again for the night fell in.
We had very little raindrops the last 2 days so that makes our sanding and varnishing crew happy.

On a ship like EUROPA with so much woodwork these crossing are fundamental for keeping our old lady shining.
Last night we had our first Shellback meeting, it was a fruitful one ;-)

Done 24hrs 138M = 5,8 kts average
