Weather forecast
Day 8. Aug 21, 2019
42° 25’ N 39° 27’ W. At sea you really loose sense of time and you can’t separate the days. You sleep, eat, look at the ocean. —Greta Thunberg
Weather forecast
(Tropical Storm) Chantal is working very well to our advantage, and we positioned Malizia there to ride the Easterly winds to have a comfortable downwind passage on it's Northern end. We are currently at a separation point, a faster option would go further North, but the safer and more comfortable route a bit further South. —Axel Hackbarth
Good night from the Atlantic Ocean
Day 7. Aug 20, 2019
About halfway across the Atlantic Ocean. Very pleasant conditions. —Greta Thunberg
The whole trip is a bucket challenge. Thank god, we have more than one. —Boris Herrmann

All is well on the boat, good vibes and no sea sickness. I’m on watch now sailing along in the dark with everyone asleep. —Pierre
The night was bouncy and rough, but mostly everyone got some sleep. We are trying to find an organisation of space and storage and life.Everything is slow motion: dressing, cooking, etc. All ok so far and we will get used. —Boris Herrmann
