1 Week on the High Seas

We've spent one week on the high seas and all is well on Impulsive. We each do a 4 hour shift and try to catch some sleep when off duty. Every morning we talk on the HF radio to check were the other Puddle Jumpers are located. We haven't seen a boat in several days, just a lot of water everywhere. The booby birds and dolphins check us out as we pass thru their neighborhood. Currently we are 700 miles out of Mexico and have found the trade winds so we are making better time. It's also a bit of a learning process as we find out which sail combinations work best in certain conditions. I'm liking the double head sails right now since we are traveling dead down wind. Cheers
