60 miles to Lanzarote

About 490nm completed and now closing on Arrecife. Weather is cloudy and the coolest we have experienced in months. The mainsheet winch decided to repair itself after a 24 hour layoff. New issue is play at the foot of the boom vang which looks like it is going to wear rapidly if left as-is. Under motor as wind dropped to F3 at first light giving us just 3kn under sail. First tuna landed yesterday. Lots of shipping traffic over 2nd half of the route. Pictures taken under cruising chute before it fell in the sea.
