Making Slow Progress

Our 24 hour run for yesterday was 137 nautical miles. Our progress is slow and conditions are rolly as our heading is almost dead down wind. So it is quite uncomfortable and makes moving around the boat difficult. The weather forecasters still disagree for tomorrow and Thursday. Chris has conditions light and variable and Herb has ESE winds continuing tomorrow and light southerly wind on Thursday. Both of them say that there is a chance of squalls on both days which are ahead of a front coming from Florida. We are obviously not looking forward to more squalls and pray that there won't be too many of them. Anyway, we have little choice but to press on.
