Black-sack showers on deck

The trade winds are now blowing us steadily south and a little west. The spinnaker is now retired, the genoa poled out.
Today´s major activity: showers! We hoist a black water-bag a couple meters up the mast. That's for rinsing. First buckets of seawater, an acceptable 23 degrees, for washing. And a hot sun on the fore-deck for blow-drying.

As "Lille-Per", untiring, uncomplainging wind-pilot, steers on. It´s a hard life.
Well, we enjoy the easy sailing while we have it. Right now we're sailing well. We do 5 to 6 knots during the night.

By the light of the moon.
