Speed 5.5
wind speed EbyS 4

Today we left Brazil after 3 days delay and we got our new first mate called Ben, he looks like a cool guy... When we left Brazil, we were motoring going about 8knots but later when we were a bit far from port, we switched off the motor and set all the sails and we were on our way to Trinidad. Today was no school, only day and nav watch.

Later on they called for all free hands on deck because we were going not fast so we had to strike all the sails and start to motor again and well we were doing the striking. It was raining so hard but at the same time we all enjoyed it...
