Madeira to Caribbean - Day 12

Today was the first day we found the need to seek out shade while on deck. Shifting wind directions required frequent jibes making it a busy day on deck. Everyone appears to be better rested and certainly perkier after getting to take showers now that the sea state is less cantankerous. Logged 197nm over a 25-hour day (another time change), an average of 7.8kts. Finally broke the 4-digit distance barrier - now we've only 900nm to go! ETA in St Martin is Dec 27th.
