Refreshed(?) by a night on the town, searching for Reykjavik's Hard Rock Cafe, by Monday afternoon the crew of Spirit of Portsmouth were ready to tackle the next leg of their 4100 mile expedition.

So at 16.00 UTC yesterday the Spirit of Portsmouth set off to cover the 563 nautical miles from Reykjavik to Bangor, Northern Ireland. The weather conditions were overcast but calm when they departed, and they expect to be in Ireland by Wednesday morning.
