Another night of light air, had a 2 hour run around 15 kts wind speed early this morning as a squall passed. Otherwise 9-12 kts true. It should be noted that we have been carbon neutral generating our own power with a small solar panel and a hydro generator which run the ships computer, refer, nav lights and these neat little fans in the berths among other things. As i write this we just lost another spinnaker, stand by...... the side seam let loose, dropped it, and put up an S2. We soldier on, keeping each others spirits up whenever we can. Wendy, thanks for the surprise you stashed in my bag, you are awesome!
