We may be a little inebriated by the time we arrive in English Harbour. Good job we get an escort from the Antigua & Barbuda Search & Rescue Team really. |

We mentioned in a recent blog that we hadn’t seen much wildlife recently, and are hoping that this changes as we get closer to the Caribbean. Today Rachel was rowing just before a handover and spotted a dark patch in the water behind the boat. Concerned that it might be fishing net about to foul up the rudder, Lin popped out to take a closer look. Only to find the biggest turtle in history staring back at her! |

Is everything really so sweet on the boat between us? We often get asked about how we’ll cope with different situations onboard particularly if we start to get on each others nerves. It’s inevitable that will happen sometimes but thankfully not as often as perhaps we thought. |

Spirits are high onboard Barbara Ivy today as yesterday we managed to get to 17 degrees North and turned West towards Antigua. Overnight we managed an amazing 30 miles in 12 hours – and Eddy is a distant memory and we’re hoping we’re on the Antigua Express now! |
