Good morning! 

With strong northerly winds, we had a fantastic24 hours run with the spinnaker and have been averaging around10 knots. 

The crew is getting more and more confident helming downwind and we made big gains towards the rest of the fleet.

The winds eased a little bit and the sea state is a bit more comfortable this morning, but we are still going fast and the sailing is very enjoyable at the moment. 

On top of that, the boat is filled with the smell of bacon and eggs for Sunday breakfast. 

So, all well on Qingdao, and we are looking forward for the sun to rise and another good day on the water! 

Fair winds and a following sea!
