It was a pretty nice day today, there has been some wind from about lunchtime, just enough to motor Sail really, I have tried sailing a few times, but its just a bit light, though I had a hour or so doing 5 to 6 knots, which after motoring a 3.5 knots for a few days was a lot of fun. I dropped the last of my jerry cans into the tank today, so we will see how I go on fuel, I think I will be fine, the weather forecast is predicting wind on Thursday, and the current should be starting to help. I made some Pancakes today for Smoko, they were pretty good, not much else happened really. This wind is picking up a bit, 1 or 2 knots more would be awesome, every time I stop the motor it dies again, and the waves start to rock the boat causing things to slam around, but at least there is something, its giving me an extra ½ of a knot or so when motor sailing. So that's about it everything is going well here.
