(0800): 859 miles to go! Speed has dropped a bit, but hoping to see that improve as the weather system gets closer to us.

(1130): Well I got all of dad's clothes "washed." I tied a rope to them, stood on the bow and let the tumble wash of the waves breaking from the bow do their thing. Then tried out the hammock at sea. ummmm....wow!
Justin took a video of me "napping". Try to imagine a tumble/spin cycle  from inside a front loading washing machine while it's strapped on a corkscrew rollercoaster and that was about it. Not such a good idea after a lunch consisting of a can of smoked oysters, crackers n beer...........The cabin now feels like a Cadillac.
 Winds have fallen off again and we have slowed a bit. Still on course for Honolulu.
