Today's estimated position is 19°52'N - 49°57'W which means about 700 miles or 5 days to go. Let's hope that Alberto Spina has been too conservative in his estimates!
"Bella Stella" or "Belle Etoile" means Beautiful Star. In both italian and french to sleep "at the beautiful star" means to sleep under the stars. It is an expression used by mountaineers when they have to sleep in the open during a long climb without a hut or a tent. The name seemed appropriate for this very special style of sailing.
