       JellyBean has (as predicted) stopped her run for now.  And we
       have a new member participating - welcome MarkRecall.
       Dutchy is now in the Atlantic and LK is flying again. Penquin
       will cross the equator today, it still looks like a fast time.

       Wind dropping a little, however, I did hit 42.0kts a little
       earlier.
       Sadly, I will probably need track a little further south soon
       and sail less optimal angles to make Gate 4.

       Wind's freeing for IG as we pass Cape Verde, but the forecast is
       8 - 10kts all the way to the Canaries.  Nice sailing but not
       quick!
