The YC worked very hard for every mile they sailed overnight. The ship was required to tack regularly through the night as the ship worked SE towards Scawfell Is.
The Command Day elections were held in the cafe last night and later during the evening those elected were given the chance for a 'one on one' with their counterparts to get some final tips.
Motorsailed most of last night in the persistent and boring light SE winds. Each of the YC watches were kept busy conducting a teamwork exercise that went very well.
The breeze yesterday evening did not last very long as hoped and most of the night was spent motorsailing. Engines were shut down at 0600 this morning and all sail reset.
Had a very quiet night last night as the ship sailed slowly (average 2kts) north in a light SE wind. This morning we dropped the jib and hoisted the 'whomper' in its place.
