This is going to be real short. We left this morning and have been making real good time due to winds in the 15 - 20 kt range. The seas are pretty uncomfortable. I would say some times the swell height is over 10 feet and they are close together. It is a following sea, which is better than beating in to it. I have had to take a Sturgeron and it is helping some. Salange left as well and 3 out of 4 people on their boat are sick - puking sick. But they are on a monohull and they were rocking back and forth significantly. As I write this, I look out the companion way and sometimes all I see is a wall of water behind us.

We should be there some time tomorrow morning. We will put in a double reef for tonight and hope the wind does not get any stonger
