One week down, two to go! We reefed down last night and had a good night sailing. This morning the swell was up a bit so the boat is lurching about a bit. We generally have between 15 and 18 knots and we seem to be going really fast. It is hot and stuffy in the cabin as all the hatches are closed. When we leave them open we get a salty shower all over the bed!
We are now sailing at 7 knots and have 17 knots of wind. Yesterday we made good mileage at 169nm.
