That's the Niebla lighthouse fading into the background as we clear the coast on Thursday afternoon. We had moderate north winds for the whole passage, though progress was somewhat slow running dead downwind. Zia weathered her first overnight well, despite being rather "green." We enjoyed nightime porpoises playing in our wake, and eerie bioluminescence streaming off of the bows. The boat is very comfortable and is sailing very well, we are happy! Sven from Alwoplast is along as crew for the first week.

Cheers, Jeff
