Here's our first entry into the daily PPJ group updates. Learning weather and other lessons from the other boats is really helpful! Still no luck fixing either of our autopilots but the self steering has improved over the past two days, so now we have more time to write updates here.

*** Havili Lat: 04 33.76 N Long: 115 14.11 W Date: 3/21/2019 Time: 21:07 UTC AWA: 105* port AWS: 8-11 kts SOG: 4.5 kts COG: 210* magnetic Barometer: 1009 mb, down from 1011 two hours ago Clouds: clear to north, large cirrostratus and cumulus over horizon to the south and east - suspect ITCZ. No rain on RADAR

All is well. Swapped out the #1 jib for our 130% genoa yesterday and the self steering is much better. Dolphins and a very large strike on dark tuna feather this morning, but no fish landed. Caught and released 3.5' long gar fish last night right after moonrise - will start taking lines in sooner. Made two huge loaves of bread last night that came out well - yeast loves this hot climate! One raisin loaf, one plain. Potato and egg salad for lunch today! Calm seas, will try to join PPJ SSB net this afternoon. We still have a few rainbow runners following along that have been with us since Clipperton!
