Day 34

A pleasant watch this morning, sea and wind is still slight. I was gas testing a few enclosed spaces* with the chief mate this morning.
Clocks are advancing another hour tonight to align us with Cape Town, time zone GMT+2
At doctor school tonight we sutured duck breasts.

*spaces on board that do not have constant ventilation, so the atmospheres within them can be low oxygen and dangerous to life. There are a lot of protocols to prepare a space like this for entry but we just had to test the oxygen levels this morning as a final check before work could commence.
