The weather could not be better. There is not a cloud in the sky, I have 12 knots of wind from the NW, and I'm sailing along on a close- reach doing 6.5 kts. The seas are quite comfortable, 3-4 ft with not much swell. I could do this all the way to the Marquesas but I'm sure it will change. Today mostly I'm working on getting my sea legs and tending to small jobs around the boat. There are two lines out for tuna but no dinner yet. May have to settle for chicken. The sport fishing fleet from Cabo is out here somewhere but I have not seen them. They always know where the fish are. I saw another sailboat earlier today but I've lost them. It may be my friends on "Adio", a German aluminum boat built by its owners who are vets of the Pacific Coconut Milk Run and have spent many years ocean cruising. That's all for now - have to get back to work.
